What is in CH 2 of the .11
Descriptions for
- Aircraft definitions (Series, type, model etc)
-Task types
-1000, 2000, 3000 series task descriptions etc
-Condition, standard, description explanations
(CH1)
Self start provision for commanders
Commanders may start their own training program for a task not currently used/trained at the unit
Most experienced SP in unit will admin training. IPs will not train or evaluate task until they themselves have been GO’d by SP.
This can be used to reestablish NVD currency across the unit (if everyone goes pumpkin)
(CH2)
Define performance task
measure the ACM’s ability to perform, manipulate the controls, and respond to tasks affected by specific conditions and mode of flight
Hand eye coordination tasks
must be trained and evaluated in all modes of
flight for readiness level (RL) progression as designated by the master task list (MTL).
define 2000 series task
The 2000-series tasks are tactical tasks that act as building blocks for performing Army Aviation missions. Some 2000-series tactical tasks are mandatory (identified in the MTL) and others are optional
based on the mission of the unit.
Tactical tasks build on skills trained in base tasks and enable mission accomplishment. Tactical tasks include external load operations and tracking targets
Define technical task
Technical tasks measure the ACM’s ability to plan, preflight, brief, run up, or operate specific onboard systems, sensors, or avionics in flight or on the ground.
These tasks are not significantly affected by conditions or mode of flight.
Technical tasks may be evaluated in any condition or mode. The commander may mandate conditions or modes of flight based on the unit mission
define 1000 series task
The 1000-series tasks are base tasks that generally apply to all aircraft in a specific category. They are the entry-level tasks that are common sub-components of more advanced tactical and mission tasks.
They generally apply to operating the airframe and usually would apply to a civilian equivalent aircraft. The critical task list identifies all mandatory and optional 1000-series tasks.
What are the 7 parts of a task
Task title.
Condition statement.
Standard.
Description.
Considerations.
Training evaluations.
References.
What is a condition statement
The condition statement specifies the circumstances under which the task must be performed and identifies an initiating cue or triggering circumstance that lets the ACM know to accomplish the task.
It also lists materials, equipment, and personnel required for task accomplishment.
What is a standard
the minimum level of performance required for task proficiency
What are task descriptions used for
The description explains the preferred method for conducting a task to meet the standards. Tasks may be accomplished using other methods, as long as the task is done safely and the standards are met.
Task descriptions broken down into crew actions.
For all tasks the common crew actions necessary to meet crew coordination objectives are
-Perform crew-coordinated actions as specified in the task description.
-Monitor engine and aircraft systems operations.
-Monitor avionics, mission equipment, navigation, and communication operations.
-Maintain airspace surveillance and clear aircraft.
-Announce when attention is focused inside aircraft—except for momentary scans—and announce when attention is focused back inside.
What are task considerations
The considerations section of a task defines essential information the aircrew must consider when performing tasks under various flight modes (day, night unaided, and night aided while using a NVD)
and/or environmental conditions.
These considerations must be evaluated to determine risk associated with task performance under certain environmental conditions.
What do the training/eval requirements of a task detail?
Training and evaluation requirements define whether the task will be trained and/or evaluated in the aircraft, simulator, or academic environment.
Listing aircraft and/or simulator under the evaluations
requirements does not preclude the evaluator from evaluating elements of the task academically to determine depth of understanding or planning processes.
What do we do if the ATM is insufficient for a given task?
