GINA Operating Characteristics

Question 7 -- 1.7.7.6.1
Does BOEING supply the GINA for the T-45C?
ANSWER: Yes, to extent that it builds the aircraft; however,
the GINA is built by LITTON for the government, and the
government supplies GINA to BOEING for inclusion in the T-
45C, as well as in other aircraft.

INSTRUCTOR NOTES
It should be noted that the GINA is an extremely reliable piece
of equipment, as are each of its internal components.
Furthermore, the GINA is designed to function in a very
automated, hands-off manner. Normally, a T-45C pilot need
only be concerned about routine operational choices. However,
if a GINA problem is suspected – or does in fact develop – the
pilot should crosscheck and continue to monitor standby
instruments. In any way reasonably possible, he should
confirm that only reliable data is being used for navigation and
aircraft control. Depending upon the nature and degree of the
problem, the pilot should remain (or attain) VMC flight
conditions, land a soon as practical (as soon as possible in
critical circumstances), and declare an in-flight emergency.
