c. Time To Train (Tt). The following factors are
considered in computing time to train: weather, unsatisfactory
events and associated delays, medical groundings, and flight or
simulator events canceled due to lack of instructor or equipment
availability. The combination of these factors constitutes
additional time required to train expressed as a percentage
(delta T) of the curriculum time (Tc). The delta T for the
T-45A Strike Designated Naval Aviator Jet Refresher/NATOPS
Training is 10.0%. The formula for computing time to train (Tt)
is as follows:
∆t) = Tt
Tc + (Tc
