This book was released on 1996-06-01 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic objective of this thesis is to identify potential financial savings in operational flight training. There are seventeen communities listed in the Commander U.S. Naval Air Forces Pacific Fleet (CNAP) and Commander U.S. Naval Air Forces Atlantic Fleet ( CNAL) Squadron Training Matrices (TRM). The F/ A-18, SH-60B, and the P-3C communities were chosen for this thesis as representative of a valid cross section of Naval Aviation. Each community's advanced qualifications were studied to determine the effectiveness and quality of training received in the simulator. Research data were obtained through: government publications, professional materials, previous theses, books, articles and personal interviews with cognizant personnel in Aviation Manpower & Training (N889F), Wing Training & Readiness Offices, CNAP/CNAL Readiness Officers, and Wing Simulator Officers. The flight hour cost savings from moving the identified qualifications to the simulator were compared to the additional simulator operating costs. The basic conclusion of this thesis is that there are significant financial savings from moving certain identified TRM qualifications to the simulator, with little or no degradation in training or safety. Therefore, moving these qualifications will reduce costs without significantly impacting operational readiness.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Simulators currently provide an alternative to aircraft when it comes to training requirements, both for the military and for commercial airlines. For the U.S. Air Force, in particular, simulation for training offers a cost-effective way, and in many instances a safer way in comparison with live flying, to replicate real-world missions. Current technical issues related to simulation for training include simulation fidelity and multi-level security, among others, which will need to be addressed in order for the Air Force to take full advantage of this technology. The workshop held in November, 2014 examined the current status of simulation training, alternative uses, current and future technologies, and how the combination of simulation and live training can improve aircrew training. The scope of the workshop focused on technologies and practices that could be applicable to high-end aircraft simulations."-- Publisher's description

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Navy surface force training has traditionally involved a combination of shore-based and underway training. Recently, however, a number of factors-budgetary, political, and environmental concerns, as well as concerns about quality of life for naval personnel-have prompted Navy training officials to consider reducing underway training time and increasing reliance on shore-based simulators. Current personnel practices, such as rotating crews rather than ships to forward-deployed locations, also suggest that requiring crews to complete their training on the ships on which they will be deployed may be impractical. Finally, technological advances have improved productivity and realism in modeling, simulation, and distributed learning.
Download or read book Simulation in Aviation Training written by Florian Jentsch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulations have been a fixture of aviation training for many years. Advances in simulator technology now enable modern flight simulation to mimic very closely the look and feel of real world flight operations. In spite of this, responsible researchers, trainers, and simulation developers should look beyond mere simulator fidelity to produce meaningful training outcomes. Optimal simulation training development can unquestionably benefit from knowledge and understanding of past, present, and future research in this topic area. As a result, this volume of key writings is invaluable as a reference, to help guide exploration of critical research in the field. By providing a mix of classic articles that stand the test of time, and recent writings that illuminate current issues, this volume informs a broad range of topics relevant to simulation training in aviation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can the U.S. Navy save money by increasing its use of simulators without sacrificing readiness? The authors look at the use of simulators in the Air Force, the Marines, and French and British forces to see if the Navy's current mix of simulator and live training should be changed substantially for the first time since the 1970s. After presenting the data for each service branch and type of simulator, the authors conclude that the Navy must first decide how it wants to measure readiness before an increased use of simulators will yield tangible returns in the form of increased proficiency at lower cost.

Download or read book Gear Up Mishaps Down written by Robert F Dunn and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2017-01-15 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Less than five years after naval aviation led the forces that defeated Imperial Japan that very organization was in serious trouble. The force had been drastically reduced and, despite the Korean War, growing sentiment supported by no less than the chairman of the Joint Chiefs argued that the new Air Force could do anything naval aviation might be required to do. Meanwhile, the naval aviation mishap rate soared. The very survival of naval aviation was at stake. It took fifty years to turn this around. Today, in spite of hot wars, cold wars, contingencies, and peacetime operations in support of friends and allies, the Navy and Marine Corps accident rate is at least as good as that of the Air Force, and it approaches that of commercial aviation. Gear Up, Mishaps Down explains that this accomplishment was achieved through dedicated and professional leadership, a focus on lessons learned from mishaps and near-mishaps, a willingness to learn from other enterprises, and by better leadership, training, maintenance, supply and more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the Phase I results of the two-stage development of a master plan for the management, operation, and support of the Navy's aviation simulation program for flight training. Phase 1 describes and analyzes the existing system, and identifies missing elements and areas wherein improvements may be possible. Phase 2 will involve development of criteria for an optimum simulation plan, the preparation of plans of action and milestones to resolve the problems identified in Phase 1 and an update of the Phase 1 data. The master plan will be a consolidation of the Phase 1 and Phase 2 efforts. The objectives of the Phase 1 report are to provide a source document for management information and to present an overview of the planning, programming, and budgeting system for major aviation operator training devices. The report covers the Navy's R and D program for simulation and the process for establishing operational requirements for major aviation training devices. The planning/programming/budgeting process for simulators and the procurement and production actions required are described in detail. The report documents the system used in the management of operation and support of flight simulators. In addition, extensive background information and detailed program data are provided in the appendices. (Author).

This book was released on 1995 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two training squadrons of student naval aviators flying the T-2C Buckeye aircraft during their Intermediate Stage of Strike (Jet) Training were compared to identify any effects attributed to exposure to the T-45 Operational Flight Trainer, a state-of-the-art, visual, dome simulator. Students in VT-23 at Naval Air Station (NAS) Kingsville, Texas were exposed to demonstrations of carrier landings in the T-45 simulator prior to their carrier qualifications. A sister squadron at NAS Meridian, Mississippi (VT-19) did not receive exposure to the simulator. Both squadrons conducted carrier qualifications on the same dates and same aircraft carrier. A comparison of the squadrons considered the four measures of effectiveness (MOE): (1) squadron disqualification rates, (2) LSO trend analysis scores, (3) Aviation Training Form (ATF) CQ-llx performance evaluations, and (4) average grades for individual performance areas listed on ATF CQ-llx. Students in VT-23 had higher CQ-l1x performance evaluations. When the performance evaluations are broken down to individual performance areas, VT-23 also has substantially higher grades in Pattern. Allowing for the importance that a proper flight pattern has on the approach and landing on the aircraft carrier, it is ar ed that exposure to the T-45 visual simulator had a positive effect on the students in VT-23.
