	Meriweather's Flight Deck Flight Acronyms & Definitions
		Permits to Fly are authorisations granted to aircraft such as homebuilts, vintage aeroplanes, warbirds and some simple classic light aircraft which are not required to meet the standards demanded for a full C of A, and are accordingly restricted in the kinds of operation for which they may be used.
		Aircraft control systems in which pilots' control inputs are transmitted to control surfaces electronically or via fibre optics rather than by mechanical linkage.
		Aircraft structural load limits are expressed in positive and negative values, the positive limit usually greater than negative, except in specialist aerobatic types.

	General Accounting Office Report
		For some systems (such as the B-52 bomber and KC-135 refueling aircraft) that continue to be used many years beyond their expected service life, operating and support costs can amount to a higher percentage of life-cycle costs.
		Systems under development are expected to have projected life-cycle costs 20 to 50 percent lower than the actual costs of the systems they are replacing.3 The actual operating and support costs for fielded systems are expected to be reduced 20 percent by fiscal year 2005.
		We reviewed efforts by new aircraft programs to lower operating and support costs, including those of the Air Force variant of the Joint Strike Fighter, which is to replace the F-16 and the A-10; the F-22, to replace the F-15; and the variant of the Joint Primary Aircraft Training System, to replace the T-37B.

		An international version of the aircraft is being marketed worldwide and 24 aircraft have been delivered to the NATO Flying Training School in Canada.
		A high-powered, single-engine turboprop aircraft normally requires extensive rudder control by the pilot, and most trainee pilots graduate to jet aircraft where engine torque is not a factor.
		The maximum cruise speed of the aircraft is 500km/h and the altitude ceiling 9,500m.

	Aircraft Trainers on the Fly - By Rodney L. Pringle - Military Training Technology
		The number of new aircrafts to the market has increased during the past few years and the overall market could reach $18 billion in sales by 2015, according to Forecast International.
		“The worldwide military training fleet is large and, in many cases, aging, but defense budget reductions and force downsizing have combined to dilute the requirements for large-scale re-equipment of these aircraft,” said Bill Dane, an analyst at Forecast International, in a study released by the company earlier this year.
		The F-35 aircraft is expected to be ready for service in 2011, and is scheduled to begin replacing the USAF A-10 Thunderbolt IIs and F-16s in 2011.

	Transcript : DoD News Briefing : Dr. Sheila E. Widnall, SECAF
		This aircraft, which is the next-generation primary aircraft training system for the Air Force and Navy will be produced by Beech, headquartered in Wichita, Kansas.
		The acquisition of the Joint Primary Aircraft Training System is an important part of our future ability to field well trained pilots capable of operating all kinds of advanced military aircraft.
		In addition, we're going to be able to train our pilots, both in undergraduate training as they fly this aircraft, but also later as they move to more advanced aircraft.

	Defense Infrastructure: Observations on Aviation Training Consolidation and Expansion Plans (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Further consolidation of aviation training between the services may be difficult to accomplish without authority from the Congress for additional BRAC round(s).1 Should such authority be granted, DOD would likely examine the potential for cross-service consolidations in a number of areas, including aviation training, as it did in prior BRAC rounds.
		Such an examination in the aviation training area would need to address a number of barriers to consolidation that exist, including (1) the services' differing approaches to their training and (2) the interrelationships among training approaches, personnel management, and career development strategies.
		Similarly, after a period of aviation preflight indoctrination and primary fixed-wing training, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard students are assigned to one of four intermediate UPT tracks: (1) jet aircraft, (2) carrier prop aircraft, (3) helicopter, and (4) maritime/surveillance.

	EPA: Federal Register:
		The JPATS is proposed to replace the two primary training aircraft and ground-based training systems used by the U.S. air Force (USAF) and the U.S. Navy (USN) with one commercial-derivative aircraft.
		The aircraft procured aircraft would more closely resemble the more advanced training and fighter aircraft used by the USAF and the USN with respect to design and equipment.
		The aircraft would also offer better performance and improvements in safety, reliability, and maintainability compared to the current aircraft over a 20-year life of the program.

		The T-6B has no active air-to-ground ranging system and aircraft barometric altitude and manually entered waypoint elevation are used to determine bomb range.
		Although the T-6A is a competent primary trainer aircraft, Raytheon's decision to develop an upgraded avionics package has served to highlight the Texan II's unrealised potential.
		The aircraft's open-architecture avionics and dual mission computers should provide the foundation for the incorporation of a large number of tactical training capabilities.
