a. Administrative Time, transit time from activity to
activity, meals, scheduling delays, and military watchstanding
duties are not considered. The student training week is based on
6 hours of training per day, 5 days per week (30 hours).
Computation of student training is based on the following
formula:
ch
=
Curriculum hours
e
=
Events
k
=
Additional training time per curriculum hour or
event
Tc
=
Total curriculum time
ch + (ch x k) or (e x k)
= TC (days) or (weeks)
6 (hrs per day) or 30 (hrs per week)
The Tc calculated is the total contact time required to complete
the phase of training.
b. Time To Train (Tt). The following factors are
considered in computing time to train: weather, unsatisfactory
events, 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 (∆t)
of the curriculum time (Tt). The ∆t for the T-2C Naval Test
Pilot School Preparatory Curriculum is 23.6%. The formula for
computing time to train (Tt) is as follows:
Tc + (Tc X ∆t) = Tt
