US Army Training Circular, TC 1-248 AIRCREW TRAINING MANUAL OH-58D KIOWA WARRIOR, 12 April 2007,military manuals

Preface
The aircrew training manual (ATM) standardizes aircrew training programs and flight evaluation procedures. This manual provides specific guidelines for executing OH-58D aircrew training. It is based on the battle-focused training principles outlined in FM 7-1. It establishes crewmember qualification, refresher, mission, and continuation training and evaluation requirements. This manual applies to all OH-58D crewmembers and their commanders.

This is not a stand-alone document. All of the requirements of AR 600-105, AR 600-106, NGR 95210, and TC 1-210, must be met. Implementation of this manual conforms to AR 95-1 and TC 1-210.

This manual (in conjunction with the AR 600-105, AR 600-106, NGR 95-210, and TC 1-210) will help aviation commanders, at all levels; develop a comprehensive aircrew training program. By using the ATM, commanders ensure that individual crewmember and aircrew proficiency is commensurate with their units' mission and that aircrews routinely employ standard techniques and procedures.

Crewmembers will use this manual as a "how to" source for performing crewmember duties. It provides performance standards and evaluation guidelines so that crewmembers know the level of performance expected. Each task has a description that describes how it should be done to meet the standard.

Standardization officers, evaluators, and unit trainers will use this manual and TC 1-210 as the primary tools to assist the commander in developing and implementing his aircrew training program.
