2 2 AFI11-202V2_AETCSUP_LAUGHLINAFBSUP 11 MAY 2018 SUMMARY OF CHANGES This document is substantially revised and must be completely reviewed. Major changes include reduced requirements for AF Form 4348 documentation for aircrew certifications, and clarification for the approval authority and paperwork that denotes each flying/ground certification. Reduced requirements for AF Form 4348 documentation has been coordinated through AETC/A3VU. Table 7.1 Flying/Ground Certifications has been combined and standardized for all wing MDSs. Additionally, this rewrite reduces the number of required appointment letters for both Stan/Eval duties and aircrew certifications (Added) OGV is responsible for overall trend tracking. Squadron DOVs are responsible for MDS-specific trend identification (Added) A trend for flight phase requisites is defined as any item that is Q- or U on more than 10% of the evaluations on which the maneuver was sampled. A testing trend is any question that is missed more than 20% of the time during a quarter. A single occurrence will not constitute a flight or testing trend regardless of percentage. A 47 OG-wide trend is defined as any MDS-general item that is a trend in two or more MDSs (Added) OGV should notify each OG Squadron two weeks prior to the SEB. Squadrons will forward inputs to OGV no later than one week prior to the scheduled SEB (Added) SEB minutes will include Contract Simulator Instructor (CSI) SEB inputs as a separate category (Added) OGV will distribute meeting minutes via TIMS/ (as appropriate) to all SQ DOVs, all Flight Examiners (FEs), and all CSI Evaluators (Added) OGV will notify the affected squadron(s) via FCIF upon release of a new publication or publication change, and will ensure sufficient copies are available at the bookstore (Added) 47 OSS Airspace is responsible for managing the 47 OG MTR review process. Slow Routes (SR) flown by 47 FTW aircraft will be included in the MTR review process. Report these results to OGV in preparation for the semi-annual SEB (Added) Operations Supervision program procedures can be found in the AFI OG Sup (Added) Each squadron will maintain an AF Form 847 advertising program (Added) SQ FEs will meet with the SQ/CC and Chief of OGV (Chief of OGV is the designated representative for the OG/CC). OG FE s will meet with the OG/CC and Chief of OGV (Added) FE upgrade training will be documented via the 47 OG Flight Examiner Certification located on the 47 OG/OGV SharePoint (Added) For SQ FE upgrades, squadrons will submit the completed FE upgrade checklist, AF Form 4324, AF Form 4348 and an updated Letter of X (LoX) to the SQ/CC for signature IAW the 47 OG Flight Examiner Certification. For OG FE upgrades, squadrons will submit an AF Form 4348 through OGV for OG/CC signature. After OG/CC signature has been verified, squadrons will submit the completed 47 OG Flight Examiner

3 AFI11-202V2_AETCSUP_LAUGHLINAFBSUP 11 MAY Certification, signed AF Form 4324, signed AF Form 4348, and updated LoX to the SQ/CC for signature (Added) After the AF Forms 4324/4348 have been signed, squadrons will submit the signed AF Form 4324 to their SARM office to update Aviation Resource Management Systems (ARMS) or equivalent system (Added) Completed FE Certification s will be kept in the FE s training folder until the AF Forms 4324/4348 and LoX have been signed by the SQ/CC (Added) Aircrew will not act as a FE until the AF Forms 4324/4348 and LoX have been signed. Additionally, aircrew should not step until ARMS (or equivalent) has been updated (Added) The AF Form 4324, AF Form 4348, and LoX will be used to designate all Flight Examiners. A squadron FE transitioning to become an OG FE does not require an additional FE checklist. For OG FE upgrades, squadrons will submit an AF Form 4348 through OGV for OG/CC signature. After OG/CC signature has been verified, squadrons will submit the signed AF Form 4348 and updated LoX to the SQ/CC for signature (Added) OGV will maintain an FE Handbook to standardize and provide local guidance for FEs. The FE Handbook will be maintained electronically on the 47 OG/OGV SharePoint site (Added) FEs will also notify the aircrew s flying SQ/CC or available supervision if the SQ/CC cannot be reached (Added) DOV chiefs will normally be the reviewing officer unless they are the FE, examinee or unavailable. SQ/CC or DO will then be the reviewing officer (Added) The final approving officer will be the flying SQ/CC or DO (Added) OG/CDs are designated Senior FEs after completing the FE upgrade process listed in paragraphs through (Added) OGV and flying squadrons will each administer No-Notice (N/N) checkrides to a minimum of 5% of the crew force (a total of 10% of the total crew force). OGV and flying squadrons will conduct at least one N/N per quarter in each MDS. Should an OG FE be unavailable for an extended amount of time (DNIF, etc.), OGV will coordinate with SQ DOV to accomplish OGV N/N requirements (document in the SEB). Squadrons are permitted to use OG FEs to meet their N/N requirements. N/N evaluations will include a representative sample of the all instructors (i.e. FAIPs, MWS IPs, active duty, and AFRC). FEs will coordinate with the assigned flying SQ/CC (SQ/DO if SQ/CC is unavailable) before informing examinees of a N/N evaluation. Flying SQ/CCs will ensure on-loan/attached SQ/CCs are informed of their aircrew s evaluation (Added) Normal preparation is at the discretion of FE and each Flying SQ/CC (normally, the day prior) (Added) HHQ and MAJCOM requests for evaluation extensions will be submitted via esss through OGV to OG/CCE.

Lead MDS CSI will determine the requirements for CSIs (Added) Stan/Evals will immediately place aircrew members in supervisory status in TIMS upon a failed requisite (Added) Squadron DOV will generate and administer semiannual examinations to all assigned and attached IPs. This test will consist of a minimum of 25 questions. Aircrew who have not taken the exam by the end of the semi-annual period will not fly until a passing a score is obtained. Flying SQ/CCs will be notified of test failures (a score below 85%) (Added) For periodic evaluations, DOV will create a draft AF Form 8/8a before the examination is accomplished. For N/N evaluations, the FE will ensure a draft AF Form 8/8a is created. Immediately after debriefing an evaluation, the FE will annotate all required items IAW Vol 2 (para ), sign the draft AF Form 8/8a, and return it to DOV. DOV will file the draft AF Form 8/8a in the member s FEF. DOV will create a final AF Form 8/8a for signatures in TIMS upon completion of all requisites.
