Utilization of Device 2F87F Oft to Achieve Flight Hour Reductions In P-3 Fleet Replacement Pilot Training.

摘要

This study continues the investigation of the training effectiveness of Device 2F87F in fleet replacement training. The study examines: comparative data on first-tour pilots trained on principal P-3 flignt tasks without correlative simulator training; training trials required to achieve proficiency in the flight simulator and in the aircraft; and performance in the flight simulator as a predictor of later performance in the P-3. The analyses considered: the number of in-flight hours required to complete the Familiarization/Instrument phase of Fleet Readiness Squadron (FRS) without previous training in Device 2F87F; transfer effectiveness ratios for Device 2F87F; and correlations between undergraduate pilot training (UPT) flight averages, UPT flight hours, and FRS performance.
