Army Aviation Maintenance Career Management Field 67 Study

摘要

The Army Aviation Maintenance Career Management Field 67 Study was directed by Department of the Army and was conducted under the sponsorship of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Logistics. The Study was charged with conducting an in-depth evaluation of the 17 aircraft repair and aircraft component repair MOS (Military Occupational Specialties) which constitute the enlisted aviation maintenance career management field (CMF 67) and with providing appropriate recommendations regarding problem resolution. Chapter areas of interest include: Aviation Force Structure, Personnel Management, Enlisted Aviation Maintenance Training, Army Aviation Maintenance, Nonaviator Flying Status for Enlisted Personnel, and Reserve Component Implications. The Study concludes that there has been a decline in Army aviation maintenance effectiveness. The reasons for this decline include: an inadequate organizational structure, an ineffective MOS structure, inappropriate grade authorizations, an unsatisfactory first term reenlistment rate for aviation maintenance personnel, a less than effective aviation maintenance training program, and increased equipment complexity.
