Undergraduate Pilot Training T 37 T 33 T 38 PDF Download

Results of an earlier study indicated that revised instructional methodologies could be used to save a significant number of T-37 aircraft hours when applied to the instrument training phase of Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT). To determine the operational feasibility of adopting these methodologies command-wide, the 82d Flying Training Wing, Williams Air Force Base, Arizona, in consultation with AFHRL, Flying Training Division personnel, trained a total UPT class using the revised procedures. This report summarizes the methods used in the T-37 phase of the project and includes a copy of the revised syllabus, the Air Training Command prepared evaluation report, and associated schedules and flow charts. The potential savings demonstrated in this study averaged 42% (8.8 T-37 hours) per student for the instrument training phase and it is recommended that favorable consideration be given to command-wide application.
