Contact

     Here is a basic overview of your Contact Stage.  This page will show you the aircraft blocks and simulator blocks/events and what the main purpose is for each event.  Each event page link (no links for aircraft flights) will have more specific details through the electronic briefing guide located on the page.  If the electronic briefing guide has a video embedded in it, it will be posted to the page due to the fact that embedded videos will not work in the PDF files given.  Also on each page will be applicable videos or briefings to help you with training on the specific event.

Checklist & Ground EPs

     The first block of training.  These three events focus on running all the checklist, from
getting in the seat to shutdown.  You will normally accomplish these in a UTD and will be in
full flight gear.  Some very basic ground EPs are accomplished in this block.
C2101

C2102

C2103
All checklists

All checklists, Start malfs, Engine Fire on Grnd, Emer Shutdown, Egress

All checklists, aborting takeoff, depart prepared sfc

C2201
C2202

In-flight EPs

     In this block you will continue to complete all the checklist but you will not be required
to wear flight gear (just gloves).  Normally these events will be accomplished in a UTD.  The
hop will also cover numerous EPs.  The focus is not on flying while accomplishing EPs but
rather the procedural aspect along with systems knowledge and application. 
C2201


C2202
All checklists, Engine failure on takeoff, Engine failure in flight, Prop feather,
Loss of Pwr, Engine Fire, Ejection

All checklists, Oil system malf, Chip, Hydraulic malf, Landing gear emergencies,
OBOGS malf, Fuel system malf

Basic Area Maneuvers & Patterns

     This block will be accomplished in an OFT as you will be flying during the events.  You will
use the Simulator Abbreviated Checklist vice running the entire Quadfold.  It is an
introduction to Contact maneuvers and the pattern prior to heading to the flight line.
C3101

Departure to MOA (course rules), Turn pattern, Level speed change, Power on
stall, Power off stall, Landing pattern stall

C41XX

Familiarization 

     The C41XX block has 4 aircraft events.  This blocks events are normally all accomplished with your on-wing.  These flights are designed to take your preliminary training in the simulator and apply it to the aircraft.  The flights are designed to allow for aero-medical adaptation into flying.

     This block will begin with "Fam 0" which is where your on-wing will orient you to all the facets prior to your flights .  These items include:  Briefing expectations & requirements, line shack orientation, ALSS & gear, aircraft issue, Aircraft Discrepancy Book (ADB), flight line orientation, and aircraft NATOPS walk-around inspection.  This tour is going to provide you with a large amount of information on flight line operations.

Pattern & Emergency Landing
Pattern (ELP)

     This block looks to solidify your pattern work and introduce you to the full EP scenarios
and the ELP.  All events will be done in an OFT.  This block brings the procedures classes
(PR0106/PR0112) into effect.
C3201


C3202

C3203
Introduces the Precautionary Emergency Landing (PEL), and PEL in the
pattern (PEL/P), as well as normal pattern operations

This event adds in Power Loss scenarios

Continued PEL, Power Loss, and PPEL/P, and patterns with an intro to crosswinds

C42XX

Off-Wing Flights 

     The C42XX block has 4 aircraft events.  One of the events in this block will be accomplished with your on-wing while three will be accomplished with off-wing instructors.  Common practice is to have the first event in the block be with your on-wing.

     Off-wing flight expose you to different techniques and instruction from squadron instructors other than your on-wing. This block goes into applying the emergency procedures and patterns you learned in the previous simulator block:  PELs, Forced Landings, ELPs, & PPEL/P.  Heavy emphasis will be placed on pattern operations and landings. 

C3301

Crosswind Landings

    A single ride, in this block dedicated to crosswind landing patterns.  This is the last simulator prior to finishing your flights and going to your first checkride.
C3301
Crosswinds from various directions and speeds

C43XX

Pre-Checkride Flights 

     The C43XX block has 4 aircraft events.  Normally, all of these flights will be accomplished with your on-wing.  Briefings will hit hard on systems, emergency, and general knowledge.  Expect to cover an aircraft system each flight to include drawing it out at the brief and explaining it thoroughly to your instructor.  On C4304, you are required to fill out an Ops Limits/Boldface sheet.

C4490

Safe-for-Solo Checkride 

     This event is your Contact Stage evaluation.  It is to a check that you must pass to be allowed to do the next event which is a Solo event.

C4501

Contact Solo 

     This event is your Contact Solo.  Your first solo flight as a Naval Aviator!  You will accomplish a minimum of 4 touch and go landings during this flight.

C3401
C3402

Aerobatics

     A block of two aerobatic simulators to practice all of the aero maneuvers.
C3401

C3402
All aerobatic maneuvers and power loss

All aerobatic maneuvers (use combinations), PEL, and PEL/P

C46XX

Aerobatics

     The C46XX block has 4 aircraft events.  These flights will be accomplished with any squadron instructor.  This block applies the procedures for aerobatic maneuvers that you learned in the simulator block.

C4790

Aerobatic Checkride

     This event is your Contact Stage aerobatic evaluation.  It is to a check that you must pass to be allowed to do the next event which is an aerobatic Solo event.

C4801

Aerobatic Solo

     This event is your Contact Aerobatic Solo.  On this flight you get to accomplish select aerobatic maneuvers all by yourself.  You should accomplish a minimum of 4 touch and go landings during this flight but most squadrons have you go to the area and then back for one to a full-stop.

C4901

Night Contact

    A single ride in this block for night contact familiarization.  You will accomplish multiple night patterns as well as emergency patterns and procedures.
