General Instructions(Chapter I)

• Grading process• Established scale to document performance on maneuvers

• Scale compares performance to the course training standards (CTS)

• Grading Scale• Demonstrated – NG / 1

• IP demonstrates the maneuver

• Used for solo flights where an IP cannot observe maneuvers

• Indicated grade for accomplishment of Special Syllabus Requirements (SSR)

• Unable – U / 2• Performance is unsafe or lacks sufficient knowledge, skill, or ability

• Deviations greatly exceed CTS & corrections are extremely slow

• Requires constant IP coaching to accomplish skill or maneuver

• Fair – F / 3• Performance is safe but with limited proficiency

• Deviations exceed CTS & corrections still lag and may not be appropriate

• Still requires moderate coaching


• Grading Scale (cont)

• Good – G / 4

• Performance is within CTS

• Deviations outside of CTS may occur if they are brief, minor, & do not affect safety

• Corrections must be appropriate and timely

• Excellent – E / 5

• Performance greatly surpasses CTS

• Performance is correct, efficient, and skillful

• Any deviations are minor & corrections are rapid but smooth & appropriate


• Maneuver Item File (MIF)

• The required grade for a specific maneuver that must be obtained by EOB

• Every stage has all blocks & maneuvers spelled out in Curriculum Guide

• Example: For “In-flight Checks/Fuel Management”, the syllabus requires you to get a grade of U/2 thru the end of the C3102 simulator block. By the end of the C4104 block (4 aircraft events), the syllabus now requires you to get a grade of F/3

• Syllabus looks for progression of skills with more training

• Critical Items (Mandatory)

• Displayed with a “+” next to the required grade

• Mandatory to meet the required proficiency by EOB

• Optional Items

• No “+” with required grade

• If maneuver is accomplished, must meet indicated proficiency level


• Grades and TIMS gradebook

• Each event will have a grade sheet filled out

• Grades are stored in your TIMS gradebook (electronically)

• Each grade sheet has the maneuvers, MIF, and awarded grade

• Example: On this event, General Knowledge/Procedures requires a grade of F/3+ by the EOB. The “+” makes this maneuver/grade mandatory. The student was awarded a G/4 for their performance as measured against CTS


• Overall Grade

• Represent the student’s progression through JPPT

• Based on performance against the MIF

• Overall Grades

• Pass – Progress is adequate to meet standards by end of block (EOB)

• Marginal – Ability to meet standards by EOB is questionable

• Unsatisfactory – Student exhibits dangerous tendencies or progress towards meeting standards by EOB is insufficient

• Awarding Overall Grades

• Must meet MIF by EOB

• Prior to EOB, performance must meet/exceed previous block MIF

• Must not “regress” in grades from block to block (Regression Rule)

• May get an F/3 on two maneuvers where a previous block required a G/4

• If more than two maneuvers awarded F/3 when previous block required a G/4 = Unsatisfactory Overall

• If performance on a maneuver for two consecutive events is an F/3 when a G/4 is required in previous block = Unsatisfactory Overall

• If any maneuver is awarded a U/2 after required grade is F/3 or G/4 in previous block = Unsatisfactory Overall


• Unsatisfactory Performance

• Ready Room Unsat (RRU)

• Student performance at the briefing is unsatisfactory

• The flying portion of the event shall not occur

• Result in going directly to an Initial Progress Check (IPC)

• On an event

• If events remain in the block, student continues to the next event until the 2nd consecutive unsat or 3rd cumulative unsat in the block

• If no events remain in the block, student repeats last block event until the 2nd consecutive unsat or 3rd cumulative unsat in the block

• If student unsats a check ride, has two consecutive unsats in a row, or three cumulative unsats in a block = IPC

• If student unsats a subsequent check ride, has two further consecutive unsats in a row, or three cumulative unsats in a block = FPC


• Warmup events (86 events)

• Used for breaks in training

• Eligibility based on the # of days since last flight or sim in the same stage

• Coded with phase, block & “86” (example: C4286)

• Warmup grades do not satisfy block required grades to progress in that block

• When events awarded? See table


• Special Monitoring Status (SMS)

• Students placed in SMS to focus supervisory attention on their progress in training, specific deficiencies, and potential to complete the program

• May also relate to students resolving personal issues

• Intended as a short term program (set goals for removal)

• If student achieves required goals or personal issues resolved, student returns to normal training flow

• If student fails to achieve required goals or performance does not improve, student goes to an IPC or FPC


• Progress Checks• Used to evaluate the students potential to complete JPPT and advanced training

• Student’s first progress check is an Initial Progress Check (IPC) and labeled as Sxx88

• Student’s second progress check is a Final Progress Check (FPC) and labeled as Sxx89

• Triggers for an IPC:• First RRU

• Second academic test failure

• Failed check ride

• Two consecutive or three cumulative unsat events in the same block

• Results of an IPC:• Pass and return to normal syllabus flow

• Fail and move to an FPC

• Triggers for an FPC• Following a failed IPC

• Conditions for an IPC exist but the student has already been to an IPC

• CO directed when the potential to complete JPPT and advanced training is in doubt

• Results of an FPC:• Pass and return to normal syllabus flow

• Fail and move to attrition recommendation by CO

Course Training Standards (CTS)(Chapter IX)

• Purpose

• Outline the tasks and proficiency required for each maneuver

• “Standards” equates to a G/4

• Aircraft control must be smooth and positive. Performance may be within CTS and still not warrant a grade of good if inputs are delayed, erratic, imprecise or inappropriate

• Momentary deviations outside CTS that do not compromise safety are acceptable if corrections are timely

KNOW THE COURSE TRAINING STANDARDS FOR THE MANEUVERS!

Ground Training(Chapter II)

• Covers all of the initial training to be accomplished prior to flight line ops

• Goes through and defines:

• Gxxxx – Ground event CAI and classes

• SYxxxx – Systems CAI and classes

• PRxxxx – Procedures CAI and classes

• Lists prerequisites - items that must be accomplished prior to moving on

Stage Training Sections(Chapters IV-VIII)

• Different stage chapters (Contact, Instrument, etc.)

• Each stage chapter starts with overall MIF grid

• Gives overall snapshot of stage

• Shows expectations of skill set proficiency advancement for each maneuver

• Shows all the various training blocks in the stage

• Breaks out simulator, aircraft, and check flight events

• After MIF grid, stage chapter will break out each individual training block


• Breakouts for each block of training (i.e. C21xx, C41xx block, etc.)

• Does not get very specific to each individual event in the block

• List prerequisites that must be accomplished prior to beginning the block

• Lists syllabus notes as to what will be accomplished on various block events if any required

• Lists Special Syllabus Requirements (SSRs) that need to be accomplished if any required

• Lists discussion items by event in block


• Each block section breaks out all the graded maneuvers and required MIF by EOB

• Grades for a block are always expectations by EOB…not per event
