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
six hours of training per day, five days a 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
=
curriculum time
ch + ((ch or e) x k)
= Tc (days) or (weeks)
6 (days) or 30 (weeks)
The Tc calculated is the total contact time required to complete
this phase of training.
b. Time to Train (Tt) Calculations. The following factors
are considered in computing Time to Train: weather,
unsatisfactory events and associated delays, medical groundings
and flights or simulator events canceled due to lack of
instructor or equipment availability. The combination of these
factors constitutes additional time required to train and is
expressed as a percentage (∆t) of the curriculum time (Tc). The
∆t for AMS helicopter training is 23%. The formula for
computing Time to Train (Tt) is:
Tc + (Tc x ∆t) = Tt
