c. The Naval Air Training Advisory Program (NATAP) officer for
that student shall be consulted in regards to personal "human
factors" issues.
d. The student shall be interviewed to identify potentially
adverse circumstances (i.e., sleeping problems, family problems)
which may be perceived as having an effect upon the student's
ability to perform.
e. The Operations Officer (or other officer so designated by
the squadron commanding officer) shall consider the student's
documented performance, recommendations by the student control
officer, stage head/flight leader and the NATAP officer to
determine the appropriate remediation. The remediation plan must
also identify the steps to evaluate student progress upon
completion of the extra training. The Operations Officer, acting
with the squadron commander's concurrence may, pursuant to para
803, award as many as two ETs for a student who is marginal in a
stage, however not more than three ETs may be cumulatively
awarded in any one phase. A student requiring more than three
ETs for marginal performance in a phase shall be considered for a
PRB under the provisions of para 807.
f. The student shall be counseled about what he/she must do
to successfully complete the program, the proposed plan for
remediation and evaluation, and advised of improved methods for
flight preparation.
g. Upon completion of extra training, the Operations Officer
shall, dependent upon the student's demonstrated progress, either
designate the student to continue training or in the event of
questionable performance or failure to make progress, recommend a
special progress check (para 714) or a PRB.
h. A student that completes multiple stages as Marginal during
any phase of training exhibits a trend of overall unsatisfactory
performance. Any student who completes three or more stages of
flight training as Marginal End-of-Stage, shall be designated as
Mid-Phase Unsatisfactory. It shall be documented on a pink
sheet, CNATRA-GEN 1542/31, and Pink Sheet Summary Card CNATRA
1542/90, and it shall count as an Unsat/Delinquency towards
future Progress Review Board (PRB) action. Two subsequent
Marginal End-of-Stages will further count as an
Unsat/Delinquency.
A)
719. END-OF-PHASE MARGINAL. End-of-Phase marginal performance
shall be identified to focus attention on students whose
performance, though technically passing, is substandard and to
determine if further training is or is not warranted. For
students in the Multi-Service Pilot Training System Curriculum,
CNATRAINST 1542.140, specific provisions of that instruction are
applicable. End-of-phase marginal determinations are not
required for and shall not be computed for MPTS students.
Marginal End-of-Phase is defined as a student flight grade of 1.2
VII-12
