scope:

Training policy, guidance, and requirements are set forth for each phase of aircrew training. Training is designed to progressively develop the combat readiness of each aircrew member, while maintaining previously acquired proficiency.

Qualification Training (Chapter 2) qualifies aircrew members for basic, non-tactical aircrew duties.

Mission Qualification Training (Chapter 3) qualifies aircrew members in an assigned crew position for a specific aircraft, to perform the command or unit mission.

Continuation Training (Chapter 4) provides the capability for aircrew members to reinforce and build upon previous training, conduct RC-26 Mission Essential Tasks, and combat-oriented aircrew training.

Upgrade/Specialized Training (Chapter 5) upgrades copilots (CP) to aircraft commanders (AC) and all aircrew members to instructor and flight examiner status. It also provides aircrew members training leading to special mission event qualification or certification.
