this is what i wanted to know
do you have a standard training program that the newbie must follow ???
does the newbie flyies the lessons off line or online with an instructor ???
for e-HAF:
if i didnt confuse you in my first post above, i described how things work in e-haf
i post it again
Here in e-haf we use such a method, meaning that members that desire to join the Fighting Squadron must pass a full training program, that teaches the v.pilot to fly and use the F-16 and its systems.
All these are included in 4 sections, that virtualy corresponds to the 4 years real fighting pilots stay in the Fighting School.
After that the v.pilot must pass 2 exams on what he learned, in two flights
one daily and one in night enviroment....
If he pass , then its called an evaluated pilot, joins 391 F.Q. and gets the Rank of Flying 2nd Lt. while getting the graduate degree in pdf format
i didnt say that the newbie must fisrt read the lesson matterial of the section that he is, take notes and have in mind questions for his Instructor.
Then we arrange an online meeting according to our "free time" and we meet online and fly together the appropriate mission, ex. CCIP/CCRP/DTOS training mission etc.
if the newbie has questions we try to solve all of them.......
if everything goes ok, then he procced to the next chapter of the section he is in, or change section.....
You can say that things are a little hard and takes time, cause the newbie must learn all of them to be ready for the 2 exams, exams that brings to them many times some stress !
If they are sure they are ready to give the exams, the instructor creates two missions.
- one daily , with full strike program , with A-A/SAM/Naval threats ... The newbie takes the lead and must destroy all preplaned targets and land with safety.
If the targets are all destroyed but he is destroyed while RTB, the mission can be considered Successfull accoarding to the instructor and what he saw.
If successfull then the instructor creates a night mission. It doesnt have to be flown the same day, not to stress the v.pilot
In the night mission, he can put the newbie again to make strike mission , but use the planes HSI/NAV/TACAN etc for navigation instead of the HUD steerpoints, use the FLIR instead of the NVG's and much more
If he passes this one also, then he takes his degree and his wings, and the rank of 2nd Lt.
As you can see, the newbie is trained in full fighting enviroment
A-A / A-G / Sead / Formations ....
We have only one Sq. due to lack pilots, but soon we must create a new one, cause the pilots are increased and we now have more evaluated pilots
The new Sq. must have a different default plane, most propably a Mirage2K
thats for now
Any questions ?
