Aircrew Training Manual, Utility Helicopter, Mi-17 Series (Tc 3-04.35) Department of the Army

Publisher Marketing: This aircrew training manual (ATM) standardizes aircrew training programs (ATPs) and flight evaluation procedures. This manual provides specific guidelines for executing Mi-17 aircrew training. It is based on the battle-focused training principles outlined in field manual (FM) 7-1. It establishes crewmember qualification, refresher, mission, and continuation training and evaluation requirements. This manual applies to all Mi-17 crewmembers and their commanders. This is not a stand-alone document. All requirements of Army regulations (ARs) and training circular (TC) 3-04.11 must be met. This manual is the governing authority for training and flight evaluation purposes only if differences exist between the maneuver descriptions in the operator's manual and this ATM. The operator's manual is the governing authority for the operation of the aircraft. Implementing this manual conforms to AR 95-1 and TC 3-04.11. This manual, in conjunction with the ARs and TC 3-04.11, will help develop a comprehensive ATP. Using this ATM ensures individual crewmember and aircrew proficiency is commensurate with the unit's mission and 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 crewmembers know the level of performance expected. Each task has a description of the proper procedures for completion to meet the standard. Standardization officers, evaluators, and unit trainers will use this manual and TC 3-04.11 as the primary tools in assisting commanders with development and implementation of their ATP. This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, and the United States Army Reserve unless otherwise stated.
