Koodak Alaska Based U. S. Air Guard : Flight Crewss : Program Analysis

Responsible for the program of instruction and daily flight operations for the Army's UH60 Blackhawk Flight School XXI, management of the Aircrew Training Program and the professional development and general health and welfare of 151 assigned personnel and 252 student pilots. Responsible for the risk management, mission approval process, standardization and training of a company which daily launches 98 helicopters in day, night, IMC, and night vision goggle modes of flight. As an instructor pilot, responsible for maintaining the highest level of proficiency in the UH-60 A/L and Mike model in all modes of flight, training student pilots, conducting flight evaluations, and enforcing aviation standardization and overall unit safety procedure.

Billard’s career in the Coast Guard began at the Revenue Cutter School of Instruction in 1894. There were 12 cadets, all carefully selected to undergo the two-year officer training school aboard the

1. The ramifications of the Coast Guards' High Year Tenure (HYT) program have caused essential enlisted members to seek new employment, not by choice of their own. Bench marks set by the program has shortened the careers of both junior and senior enlisted members. Because of this Aviation rates are top and bottom heavy with a lack of middle management, over 300 short at the E4/E5 level to be specific. High Year Tenure benchmarks known as Professional Growth Points (PGP) need to be updated.

Early realignment and retaining eight OH-58D Kiowa Warrior Helicopter Armament / Electrical / Avionics Systems Repair (15J) Soldiers work in A Troop remained paramount to launch-recover-launch operations, an Operational Readiness (OR) rate of over 98%, and leading TF Wolfpack with over 11,000 hours flown

With the Coast Guard’s High Year Tenure (HYT) policy, Career Retention Screening Panel (CRSP), and the reduction of recruits going through boot camp Air Station Atlantic City is currently seeing out of its 132 available billets, 12 E-7 and above, 16 Aviation Survivalist Technicians, 6 retirements from HYT, 3 civilian jobs currently being filled by Coast Guard personnel, and additionally 17 billets are currently not filled. This brings CGAS Atlantic City Enlisted Aviation Engineering personnel (that are able to go to the NCRADF) to 71 personnel. These available personnel cover the Area of Operations (AOR) with two Bravo Ready crews and go to NCRADF. The empty PAL vacancies, as well as the NCRADF, were not thought of when Brooklyn Air Station and Cape May Air Station were merged to create CGAS Atlantic City. Such a shortage of personnel has led to a myriad of personnel going to the NCRADF on back to back deployment. Each deployment they are away from their families is for 21 days and after a four

Additionally, it is likely that deserving Sailors are not being promoted because too many quotas are distributed via this program. Similar to other Navy initiatives, commands authorized MAP quotas are undoubtedly promoting Sailors because the command is reluctant to return quotas to NAVPERS. Furthermore, since the implementation of the program, NAVADMIN 141/15 authorized commands to “request additional MAP quotas” (Greenert, 2015). After a discussion of the problem, it leads to a discussion of the effect of this program on competitive

“We are more than a group of teenagers.We are more than just a program.We are a family, and we stick together” (-K.G). The Royal Canadian air cadets are a national program for both male and females of the age of 12-19. This program is administered by the Canadian forces and is funded through the department of national defense. The first squadron established was in 1941 to train young men for duties during world war lΙ.In this essay I will be talking about the three best things about air cadets, drill, band, and learning new skills. I believe that these three things are the best things in Air Cadets because they teach you very valuable lessons.

Our team’s core objectives are to update previous teams demographic data and to identify those “hard to fill” officer specialties and enlisted ratings. To meet the worldwide threat that is possible in 2030, our group is to assume that by doubling the Navy’s at-sea force it will provide enough people to man ships, squadrons, and staff level jobs. The concept to be considered is the “Blue-Gold” crews that are currently used on submarines today.

Hey Scho. I really appreciate your insight. We have a very diverse class with all different backgrounds and career paths. It’s been good to study and learn from other within the class. I’m sure this question hits home as a CENTCOM expeditionary squadron commander and C-146A pilot.

The United States Army began its aviation heritage in the mid 1920’s as the United States Army Air Service later turning into the United States Army Air Force. It was the aviation fighting force for the Army until 1947 when the United States Air Force was created and the Army was no longer legally allowed to conduct missions in the same manner as it did in World War II (WWII). It was in WWII that the Army saw the potential of Vertical Lift, however it was too late to make any effect on the war. The helicopter saw its first combat in the mountains and valleys of Korea. It was here that the Army was able see a significant change in combat due to this new piece of technology. U.S. Commanders were able to get real time updates to the

As a leader, I view the youth of our department as an opportunity to reinforce a dedicated and enthusiastic team. Having thirteen years in the fire service, I understand the value in having a crew with experience. This experience provides instinct and knowledge that develops over time. I understand that, during this transition period, I am likely to have a crew with limited fire experience. Fortunately there are several courses of action that can help to compensate for this lack of experience. Such remedies include consistent training, leading by example, and considering the background of each crew member.

Crew Resource Management (CRM) includes communication as one of its major aspects (Guzzo and Dickson, 1996). It is suggested that CRM strategies can be used to enhance communication

This project is sensitive in that it has a critical path that needs to be held to in order for sequential events to happen in the appropriate time frame. Any delays will ripple throughout the project manifesting in a rush at the finish of the project to train a team of sailors on a brand new vessel. This situation must be avoided at all costs, while staying within the budget. Bjorn Ericksen has come up with the appropriate project plan to reduce the timeframe and have a well train team of sailors ready to compete on a finely tuned sailing vessel.

First, the training program constraint is based on the traditional training plan which highlights the inherent weakness of any optimization model as it relies upon sound data for accurate outputs (Sarker 2008, p. 5). Second, the potential sources of savings vary depending on different system bids. It is the fact that a bid will have no cost components associated with those activities when it is no required on new hires and pilot releases. Third, even using the system, there is a trade-off between block-hour shortages and other costs on the training plans. Therefore, when block-hour shortages cost increases, the training cost will decrease, vice versa. It is unable to decrease both block-hour shortages cost and training costs together. Finally, the final decision of the training program is not automated and requires management to select the best option for each training program.
