402. Scope. The 1542 is a sequential listing of modules or
stages (if applicable) with guidelines explaining the sequence of
instruction, scheduling, standardization, administration,
training forms, jacket reviews, flight/simulator interchange
ability, attrition process, and performance measurement.
Additionally, the 1542 should address brief time, solo
restrictions (if applicable), warm-up policy, flight waivers,
accelerated progression (MPTS/MNTS only), incomplete events,
weather/safety pilots (if applicable), emergency procedures,
definitions, academic periods, and flight support periods. The
1542's modules are divided into submodules which correlate to
events (academic, flight support, simulator, or flight).
Simulator and flight events are further subdivided into
tasks/items which specify the training to be conducted for the
training period. Academic and Flight Support events are not
subdivided but stand alone identifying the specific training to
be conducted. Events subdivided into tasks/items are arranged in
a logical sequence for instruction. Tasks/items are graded via
training objectives defining the level of proficiency required.
Each 1542 MPTS/MNTS format will be divided into stages which are
divided into blocks of training. Each block will have specific
tasks/items which all must be completed prior to the end of the
block. The grades assigned during each event are derived from a
course training standard (CTS) listed in the 1542.
