CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION

1 - 1. GENERAL.

a. The MOI course requires the applicant to be qualified as a pilot in the TH-67 helicopter prior to beginning the syllabus. Aviators not meeting this requirement must first successfully complete TH-67 pilot qualification training. This qualification training will be conducted by the Advanced (Instrument) Division1 MOI lnstructor Pilots IAW the requirements specified in the Primary lnstructor Pilot Flight Training Guide 1 (FTG). lnstructors who have completed MOI training and are tasked to provide Instruction in other training programs i.e. Rotary Wing lnstrument Examiners course (RWIFEC), Rotary Wing lnstrument Course (RWIC) etc will receive additional instruction as deemed necessary by contract management to effectively instruct in accordance with (IAW) applicable FTG. Continuation training requirements will be IAW with the current flight-training contract; the provisions of this document and the contractors approved operating specifications. Contractors operating specifications must include as a minimum the provisions of this document. Enhancements to the programs described in this document are at the individual contractor's discretion.

b. Location: Fort Rucker. Alabama.

c. MOI Duration: 4 weeks, 3 days.

d. Contract lnstructors will be subject to the provisions of the continuation-training program for the duration of their employment with the flight-training contractor.

1-2. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS.

a. Prior to the first flight, the briefing officer and the instructor pilot will brief the student pilot on safety; airfield operations and procedures; airfield layout and facilities; survival vest components, survival radio, and helmet inspection requirements, the 11 Oth AVN BDE SOP and the 11223 BN SOP.

b. Safety and composite risk assessment will be briefed by the briefing officer and the assigned instructor as an integral part of each daily flight period. The briefing will include hazards the crew can expect to encounter during the flight and the controls available to mitigate those hazards. To help students develop a practical foundation in the risk management process lnstructors and flight commanders will include their risk mitigation logic with students to the extent that it does not interfere with primary training objectives.

c. Aircraft and simulators will be operated IAW current operators manual, SOPS, AR 95-1, AR 95-2, AR 95-20, USAAWC Regulation 95-2 and approved contractor operating specifications

d. While operating aircraft the operators supplement and checklist will be used. (example:

preflight, before takeoff, before landing, and engine shutdown checks).

e. Students will have their flight helmets inspected by the Battalion ALSE shop prior to their initial flight and every 180 days thereafter.

f. Flight safety clothing and equipment will be used IAW appropriate regulations. All students will wear two metal ID tags on a chain around their neck or they will not be permitted to fly.

g. Only those tasks specified in this FTG will be performed or demonstrated.

h. Composite Risk management will be IAW 11223 BN SOP and the contractors operating specifications.

i. Proper Crew Coordination technique will be integrated as much as possible in training.

lnstructors are encouraged to allow students to operate as a crew from the crew stations in the simulator as much as their individual proficiency allows.

1-3. REQUIRED MANEUVERS AND PROCEDURES FOR MOI TRAINING. Maneuvers and procedures required for training are shown in the recommended training outline. Current FTGs will be used as a guide for training Instructors. The goal of this FTG is to provide the instructor with the skills necessary to teach IERW instrument students effectively. A schedule of flight time is provided as a guide to the instructor for the proper pacing of students. The training sequence ensures that adequate time is available each period for review of previous tasks as well as introduction and practice of new tasks. Proficiency is based on individual backgrounds, skills and demonstrated performance. MOI lnstructors are expected to advance their students when they are proficient. Scheduled and unscheduled ground time should be used to its best advantage to facilitate Instructor training.

1-4. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS OF MOI TRAINING.

a. Aircraft and simulators will be operated IAW the operator's supplement and checklist provided by the manufacturer, and USAAWC Supplements to the operator's manual.

b. Safe operating practices and maneuver standardization will be stressed at all times.

c. Students will maintain a complete grade folder on themselves as part of this training. The preparation and usage of the grade folder will be IAW the current grade book SOP, USAAVNC Reg 350-1 6 and 11223 BN SOP.

d. Chapter 2 (Training Sequence) of this FTG lists the tasks that will be taught.

1-5. DESCRIPTION OF MOI TRAINING. The term "flight" as used throughout this guide applies equally to either Flight Simulators (FS) or aircraft (AIC). All training will be dual instruction.

a. The course consists of a total of 35.5 hours of instruction conducted in the classroom, the TH-67FS and the TH-67. TH-67 flight hours of 1.5 are added to Stage II for an Acceptance Evaluation flight administered by HHC QAE 11223 Avn Bn, Standards 1 1 Oth Avn Bde or DES.

b. The daily block time for flight training is 5.5 hours. The student/instructor ratio is 2:1

c. The course is divided into stages I and II.

(1) Stage I consists of 21.0 flight hours to be flown in 14 training periods. This stage is devoted to instrument proficiency training and MOI in the TH67 flight simulator.

(2) Stage II consists of 14.5 flight hours to be flown in 8 training periods. This stage is devoted to instrument proficiency training and MOI in the TH-67.

d. Proficiency progression.

(1) All training objectives will be completed to proficiency. The advanced student may not require all scheduled periods to achieve proficiency.

(2) Simultaneous performance and oral presentation of maneuvers will be introduced at an appropriate time to permit sufficient practice by the student to achieve proficiency prior to the acceptance evaluation.

(3) The director of MOI will monitor student-training progress and make recommendations to the Director of Training as to the disposition of students in training.

(a) MOI lnstructors will report students whom in their judgment are not making satisfactory progress during this training program to the director MOI.

(b) CDR HHC 11223 and the Contracting Officers Representative (COR) must approve the award of additional flight training in excess of that described in this FTG for MOI students.

(c) The Director of Training may request an acceptance check ride on a proficiency basis.

(4) The final 1.5 hours of stage II are devoted t o an Acceptance Evaluation administered by HHC QAE 11223 Avn Bn or DES.

1-6. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS OF CONTINUATION TRAINING. Contract Flight lnstructors are in a unique status and have more specialized training requirements than Army Aviators. Their degree of success is ultimately measured by the success of their students. The focus of this continuation training program is student performance. The contractor Instrument Instructor Continuation Training Program is similar, but not identical, t o the Army's Aviator Training Program (ATP). It consists of the relevant provisions found in the following documents. These are, in order of precedence, the current flight training contract, this FTG and the individual contractors operating specifications.

a. Contractor's operating specifications will not be less restrictive or remove provisions found in this FTG. Contractor's may be more restrictive or add provisions t o those found in this FTG when developing their continuation training programs.

b. When conducting oral Evaluations of Contractor Quality Control personnel, MOI instructors and Flight Commanders the Evaluator will take in to consideration the performance of the individuals under their technical supervision to determine areas of emphasis.

c. Annual evaluation and medical examination requirements are not necessarily associated wi th an individual's birth month. These evaluations may be scheduled up to 6 0 days early and 3 0 days late of the anniversary of the previous evaluation to facilitate minimum impact on student training and Evaluator availability. After coordinating with QAEJHHC 11223 Avn Bn, adjustments to annual cycles may be made to more efficiently utilize resources. QAEIHHC 11223 Avn Bn, Standards 1 loth Avn Bde or DES will accomplish IP Acceptance Evaluations, Annual Evaluations and Student Progress Evaluations.

d. Reasonable amounts of pre evaluation simulator, aircraft and academic refresher training should be provided by contract MOI personnel at the request of individual Instructors.

e. Quality control Evaluators listed in the current Flight training contract are the only personnel authorized t o administer Evaluations. All evaluations will be scheduled wi th QAEIHHC 11223 Avn Bn. If evaluators are not available for a specific evaluation, contract MOI personnel, on a case-by-case basis, may conduct after coordination wi th and approval of QAEIHHC 11223 Avn Bn.

f . Evaluators who maintain Army Standardization Pilot (SP) qualification will normally conduct evaluations of contractor MOI personnel. Other Evaluators may be assigned this duty at the discretion of the of QAEIHHC 11223 Avn Bn Platoon leader.

g. Flight lnstructors returning t o aircraft flying duty after extended absences, i.e., simulator only duties, military leave, medical grounding, layoff, etc., wil l receive appropriate refresherlcurrency training by MOI instructors. If the individual is still within one year of his last Standardization Evaluation, he may return to instructor duty without evaluation. He will remain on the same annual cycle he had prior to his absence. If the absence has caused him to miss his Annual Flight Evaluation, he will be scheduled for a Standardization Evaluation and the date of that evaluation will begin a new annual cycle.

h. Contractor MOI personnel will normally give instructors who receive unsatisfactory evaluations applicable refresherhemedial training after coordination with QAEIHHC 1 1223 Avn Bn. These lnstructors will not be allowed to teach students and will be scheduled for reevaluation after successful completion of their refresherhemedial training. lnstructors who develop a continuing pattern of unsatisfactory performance will be processed IAW paragraph 9-1 1 of the 110th Avn Bde SOP.

i. Instructors being assigned duty in RWIFEC for the first time will be scheduled for an m Acceptance Evaluation prior to being assigned students. lnstructors with previous RWIFEC experience may be rotated through various courses without Acceptance Evaluations as long as their Annual Evaluation is current.

j. New lnstructors will receive a No-Notice Evaluation by QAEJHHC 1J223 Avn Bn after approximately 60 days of training students.

I

k. Instructor training situations not specifically addressed in this FTG or the Flight Training I Contract will be submitted to QAEJHHC 11223 Avn Bn for resolution.

1-7. DESCRIPTION OF CONTINUATION TRAINING. The flight-training contractor is responsible for coordinating with QAEJHHC 1 I223 Avn Bn to schedule all but No-Notice Evaluations. If an Evaluation requires AJC, FS or classroom facilities the flight-training contractor is also responsible for scheduling those resources. QAEJHHC 11223 Avn Bn is responsible for scheduling resources for No-Notice Evaluations. If a No-Notice Evaluation will cause an lnstructor to be unavailable to train his students QAEIHHC 11223 Avn Bn will provide a replacement Instructor.

a. All flight and simulator instructors will receive an Annual Evaluation applicable to the duties I they are performing. Flight lnstructors will be evaluated in the TH-67. Simulator only instructors will be evaluated in the simulator they normally fly. I

b. No-Notice Evaluations will be conducted at the discretion of QAEIHHC 1J223 Avn Bn. They may be conducted in the TH-67, the FS, SIM VU recordings or in a classroom. New lnstructors will receive a No-Notice Evaluation by QAEIHHC 11223 Avn Bn after approximately 60 days of training students. No- Notice Evaluations will be scheduled at random or as a result of observed or reported student deficiencies.

Results of No-Notice Evaluations will be recorded on USAAWC (1 10th AB) Fm 1852 and provided to the director MOI for action and inclusion in individual training records. Individuals receiving unsatisfactory No- Notice Evaluations will be processed IAW paragraph 1 -6h above.

c. QAEIHHC 11223 Avn Bn, Standards 1 10m Avn Bde or DES will conduct post accidentlincident evaluations after coordination with appropriate safetylaccident board authorities.

2-2. TRAINING PERIODS. All daily flight periods are 5.5 hours. Each aircraft and flight simulator is issued for 3.0 hours. In stage I, the student flies primarily in the left seat of the TH-67 simulator and receives instrument proficiency training and MOI training. M01 instructors are encouraged to take maximum advantage of available Sim VU recordings to familiarize students with the actual environment during IERW training and also allow the student Instructor to gain insights in to effective teaching techniques used by other instructors. In stage II, the student flies in the left seat and continues to receive instrument proficiency training and functions as a copilot and instructor pilot. The flight period is broken down as follows:

a. Daily flight briefing by the flight commander. The following items will be covered:

(1) ID tags checks.

(2) Special announcements.

(3) Weather

(4) Daily questions.

(5) Safety tip.

(6) AircraftISimulator assignments. TH67FS assignments must allow for each student to experience at least 2 training periods in both motion and non motion simulators.

(7) Aircraft/Simulator scheduled time.

(8) AircraftISimulator downtime.

(9) Questions from students.

b. lnstructor Pilot (student instructor pilot in stage II) briefs student on the training flight that is t o be conducted for that day. Students should clearly understand what is t o be accomplished.

c. Students will evaluate weather and conduct a practical flight training exercise. (Final decision to conduct a flight during weather days will always be made by the IP).

d. lnstructor Pilot will debrief his students (following student IP debriefing in stage Ill. The debriefing will include a critique of the student's performance so that he may gain the maximum benefit from each day's experience.

2-5. EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS.

a. General: This chapter establishes procedures and requirements for evaluation of TH-67 Contractor lnstrument instructor pilots and Contractor MOI pilots. It includes information concerning both Army acceptance Evaluations and Evaluations conducted as part of Contract lnstrument lnstructor Continuation training. Continuation training flight evaluations include Annual, No Notice and post accident evaluations. Evaluators are encouraged to refer to this FTG during Evaluations t o facilitate standardization.

b. Purpose: Provides standard evaluation criteria t o assist in preparing for acceptance and continuation evaluations.

c. ExperienceIRating Requirement: Prior to the acceptance evaluation, evaluators will ensure that the applicant meets minimum qualification criteria as outlined in the POI established for this course.

d. Contractor Evaluation Requirements:

(1) Contractor IP evaluations will be conducted IAW Chapter 2-5 of this FTG.

(2) Tasks selected for evaluation are shown in paragraph 2-5f(3)(c) l .

(3) It is recommended that the following evaluation sequence be used:

(a) Phase I - Introduction.

(b) Phase 2 - Oral Examination.

(c) Phase 3 - Flight Examination.

(d) Phase 4 - Debriefing.

(4) Grading considerations:

(a) Proficiency in the oral examination is based upon the Evaluator's assessment. The examinee must demonstrate a working knowledge and understanding of the subject areas presented as they relate t o teaching in their respective training programs. He should also be able to provide clear, concise and practical instruction in these areas. Memorization of obscure technical details that are not directly related to in-flight situations; or are outside the pilot's ability to control, are neither required nor desired. When discussing hazardous situations the emphasis should be on identifying and eliminating the hazard. The oral evaluation is not intended as an examination of knowledge in maintenance, flight theory, anatomylphysiology, regulations or procedures beyond the practical requirements of their job. MOI, I course content, standardization and relevance t o the overall goals of the training program should also be considered during the evaluation of ground school instructors.

(b) Proficiency in the flight examination is based upon standards for each task. These standards are the minimum, which must be achieved for ideal environmental conditions. When flight conditions are less than ideal, the Evaluator should adjust the standards accordingly. Task #I075 will I be evaluated to pilot proficiency only for instrument instructor pilots. Contractor MOI personnel must 1 demonstrate lnstructor proficiency in all tasks evaluated.

e. Evaluation Sequence (stage II) will be per TD-flight period IAW IERW FTG.

f. Evaluation Sequence (stage Ill):

( 1 Phase I - Introduction:

CONDITIONS: In a TH-67FS, 2B34 or a TH-67 helicopter in simulated or actual IMC conditions.

STANDARDS:

1. Coordinate airspace usagelrequirements with ATC.

2. Coordinate and receive approval for clearancelairspace deviations from ATC.

DESCRIPTION: During the course of any instrument training flight, it is necessary to coordinate with ATC to insure that necessary maneuvers and procedures are accomplished. To insure that this is accomplished in a timely manner with minimum congestion on the radio, the following steps should be followed:

a. During or prior to initial contact with the appropriate ATC facility acquire advanced approach information.

b. On initial contact with ATC, advise receipt of the ATIS if applicable and advise of intentions to include, if appropriate, the type and number of approaches and holding in the order requested.

c. Pass all requests to ATC as early as possible to insure sufficient time for airspace coordination. In the event it becomes necessary to coordinate for airspace or clearance deviation, the following procedures will be used:

(1) Recognition Phase: Use the following means to recognize the need for a deviation:

(a) ETE.

(b) Geographic landmark (VFR conditions only).

(c) Cross reference with other NAVAIDs.

(d) Radar fix of position (care must be exercised not to misuse this method and create overload of the ATC system).

(2) Approval: After recognizing the need for an airspace deviation, the request for it should be as specific and as detailed as conditions will allow in order to give ATC sufficient information. If ATC cannot approve the deviation request, positive corrective action must be initiated to correct the situation.

(3) Correction: After receiving approval for the deviation, the instructor should initiate corrective action while allowing the student the maximum flexibility in decision making that the situation will allow. Recommended methods of correcting a situation are listed below in their preferred order of use:

(a) ATC: Advise the aircraft of its position and request its intentions.

(b) Copilot: Provide information to the student that will facilitate his recognizing the situation.

(c) Instructor: Provide directive instructions to the student on how to initiate corrective action for an airspace deviation.

(dl PC: Take the aircraft controls and initiate immediate corrective action.

NOTE: At no time should flight safety be compromised for the sake of evaluation or training.

2. Training materials considered appropriate to support a lesson include, but are not restricted to:

student handouts, posters, projection equipment, film slide, viewgraphs, and mock-ups. They should be reviewed for accuracy, currency, and usability. The student should not use a training aidlmaterial that would not enhance his lesson, i.e., a mock-up is a good training aid, but because of the training location, its use is impractical.

3. When the student is certain that his class is ready for presentation, i.e., the training site selected, materials available, rehearsal(s1 complete, etc., the class is presented. The presentation should follow the selected lesson planlguide.

4. After presentation, the student solicits feedback, not only to judge the effectiveness of his presentation, but also to identify areas of the lesson that can be improved upon.

REFERENCE: IP Handbook

TASK: ISSUE ATC CLEARANCES AND INSTRUCTIONS. 7508

CONDITIONS: In a SFTS or TH-67 helicopter in simulated or actual IMC conditions.

STANDARDS:

1. Clearance formatslsequence will be IAW FAA Publication 71 10.65.

2. Clearance terminology will be IAW FAA Publication 71 10.65.

NOTE: Due to the interpretations differences in the FAA Publication 71 10.65, the examiner should consider slight deviations for interpretations; i.e., ATC technique, due to environmental/workload conditions, etc.

3. Student examiners will be able to issue the following clearances:

a. Departure information.

b. Takeoff clearances.

c. Initial IFR clearances.

d. En route clearances.

e. Holding clearances.

f. Approaches clearances,

g. Advanced approach information.

h. Radar vectors.

i. Landing clearances.

4. Perform ATC functions for radar and non-radar environments.

DESCRIPTION: One of the requisite skills of an instrument instructor is the ability to perform simulated ATC functions when required during instructor instrument training. To be able to perform in this capacity, the instructor must have an understanding and knowledge of ATC clearance formats and terminology, and the air traffic control system. During flights the instructor should exercise care to perform simulated ATC functions only when necessary to create a situation or evaluation point necessary for the flight which would otherwise not occur due to existing conditions. Knowledge of ATC clearances and procedures is required to insure that the instructor does not cause confusion or issue improper ATC clearances.

CHAPTER 4. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

The information in this section is intended as a resource for the student lnstrument lnstructor pilot during this course and in his follow on duties teaching IERW lnstrument Students. It is not necessarily aircraft type specific but it is primarily concerned with training conducted in the TH-67 and the TH-67 simulator.

It is important that we remember that our most important goal is to train Army Aviators who can operate successfully in their tactical aircraft wherever they are assigned. Procedures and practices in place to facilitate training at Fort Rucker or specific only to the TH-67 should be as transparent as possible to the IERW student. This chapter is not intended to change any standards, procedures or regulatory guidance found in other publications. The techniques discussed in this chapter are not the only approved techniques nor do they represent the only opinions or techniques used by successful Instructors. It is hoped that the information presented will stimulate insights by providing the reader with lessons learned by some successful lnstructor pilots over many years in Army Aviation.

4-1. GENERAL INFORMATION.

a. Training Focus:

(1) It is important to remember that we are attempting to build important foundation skills necessary to the survival and effective performance of our students in the future. Emphasis on "gray areas"," trivial pursuit", "creative techniques" and unnecessary backup procedures almost always interfere with a student's ability to absorb critical basics.
