CHAPTER VIII
FAILURE TO MAINTAIN REQUIRED STANDARDS
UNSATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES
800. FAILURES. Administrative procedures are set forth in this
(R
chapter to deal with students who fail to meet the minimum
acceptable standards. For students in the Multi-Service Pilot
Training System Curriculum, CNATRAINST 1542.140, specific
provisions of that instruction shall be applicable. The
procedures will vary according to the number of unsatisfactory
grades previously received by the student and are outlined in
Table VIII-1 and Table VIII-2. After a pipeline change,
unsatisfactory grades received in the discontinued pipeline after
the Primary phase do not count when determining minimum authority
and maximum allowable extra instruction for failure in the new
pipeline. It is the reviewing authorities' responsibility to
ensure that resources are not expended on those individuals who
clearly demonstrate an inability to achieve curriculum criteria
within normal time limitations. Naval Air Training Command
(NATRACOM) flight criteria are designed to enable the students to
meet minimum curriculum standards within the published time-to-
train (Tt).
801. INITIAL ACTION. Training shall be suspended following an
unsatisfactory event, or unsatisfactory phase completion, until
action required by Table VIII-1 or VIII-2 is complete.
802. SUSPENSION FROM AND RETURN TO TRAINING. Students may have
their training suspended or may be returned to training upon the
authority of the designated officer as outlined in Table VIII-1
and Table VIII-2. Every effort shall be made to minimize the
time a student is suspended from training.
803.
LIMITATIONS IN AWARDING EXTRA INSTRUCTION
a. Table VIII-2 lists the authority required and applicable
limitations for all cases of failure.
b. Extra instruction is awarded only to those students
exhibiting the capability to satisfactorily achieve curriculum
criteria.
c. Once awarded, all extra instructional events shall be
completed unless that event was characterized as optional. All
awarded extra instruction and rechecks must be completed prior to
continuing in any other stage, except carrier qualification (CQ)
disqualified student naval aviators (SNAs) awaiting the next CQ
period (e.g. if student awarded 2 extra training (ET) events and
recheck due to unsatisfactory event, all evolutions must be
completed even if the student performed to checkride standards on
either ET event).
