This section is for all the instructors out there who may wander to this site. Right now, we have the simulator electronic briefing guides posted on this page. If there are links in the guides to videos, you can find them on the Maneuver Quick Links list on the Home page. Other information, such as academics, Course Rules, etc. can be accessed via their normal pages. More to develop as time goes on.

Aircraft Flights
Q41XX block has 4 aircraft events. The Opening block going over all maneuvers covered in simulators (stalls, spins, pattern, aerobatics, EPs) Q42XX block has 4 aircraft events. The Q4201 & Q4202 events are considered NATOPS Instrument hops focusing on mainly instrument procedures. These two events may be done right after your first hop (Q4101). The other 2 events in the block will be a cross-section getting you ready for your evaluation. Q4390 is the NATOPS Qualification. I4490 is the NATOPS Instrument Qualification normally flown after the Instructor Instruments. |
