This grading procedures guide is used to standardize the use of ARTS for tracking the Training and progression of all students conducting flight Training at USAACE.

2 SCOPE AND RESPONSIBLIITIES. The ARTS Grading SOP applies to all Instructors conducting Training and evaluations for non-rated and rated students enrolled in a formal POI at the USAACE. This SOP is designed to supplement USAACE Reg 350-16. In instances where this SOP differs the regulation will take precedence. Recommended changes to this SOP. will be forwarded to the 110th Aviation Brigade Standardization section. GUIDELINES. Anytime flight time is flown or there is a task graded as N unsatisfactory the event is submitted with proper status of complete or incomplete and either cloned again or submitted as complete. Checkride evaluations will only be completed on the checkride event or a cloned checkride event. When using modifiers for cloning Add-Trng will add syllabus time, Make-Up.

3 Will not add syllabus time and used for administrative clones. See Chapter 2 Cloning for correct uses of modifiers when cloning. 4. CHAPTER 2. 2-1 LOGGING FLIGHT TIME. The -12 Flight Record Feature WILL be used for all scheduled flights under a formal POI in ARTS, and can be used for any flight scheduled in ARTS as a back up to CAFRS/ULLS-AE. This will be in addition to recording flight time in ULLS/AE, and will be used as a double check of logged flight time in order to ensure students are getting credit for all flight Training . Access the flight record several different ways; From the ARTS browser by clicking on RESULTS then FLIGHT RECORDS, from Student Status Big Board, Flt Rec TAB, right click block for the event and open Flight Record, or from a Student Grade Sheet click on Flight Record in the Details information on the right side of the screen.

4 Flight record should open for the scheduled flight for that day. Information on the flight record will reflect the information on the flight schedule; including students, event, aircraft tail number and default flight time for the scheduled event. 5. 6. MISSION DATA Section Only verify or enter information in the Date and Serial Number blocks, If anything in these blocks are incorrect then enter the correct information, including if you bump to a back-up aircraft change the tail number. All others leave blank ( Starts, Landings, Hit Check). FLIGHT DATA Section Fill in all blocks, if more than one flight click Add button to add second or third flight. Flight time is automatically calculated and Night block fills in based on lunar data (it does not log you as night condition).

5 AIRCREW DATA Section Fill in all blocks according to DA PAM 738-751 and AR 95-1. Make sure ADP. code is correct. ADP Code is tied to a student name in ARTS, any edits to ADP code must be sent to the BN SMO. If a student was scheduled and not flown click the X on left hand side of page next to student's name. If you fly a student that was not on the schedule ( you picked up a third student) click on the Add button and insert the new student's name. Training DATA Section All blocks must be filled in and correct. The Event must be correct, time logged in the Actual Duration block, Modifier, and Reason will transfer to the Student Training Jacket for that event. 2-2 STUDENT Training JACKET. The Student Training Jacket takes the place of all three pages of the FORM 463.

6 Horse Blanket . USAACE Reg. 350-16 and USAACE 350-20 will still be adhered to. Required forms will either be attached digitally to the student's Training jacket or forms and memorandums that cannot be attached will be kept in a Smith folder for each student in Training . It is important to remember each event in the student Training jacket is an EVENT and not a Training day. Multiple events can be completed and graded in one Training day. Flying events are green, simulator device events are blue and academic events are orange. Unless authorized by the POI DO NOT grade a flight event on a simulator event or vice versa. 7. Because of scheduling, weather or aircraft availability, events do not need to be completed in order but all events must be completed.

7 The primary way of keeping a student on syllabus and at the correct P3 level when he/she falls behind is cloning or completing an event as a No Grade (NG) when he/she is ahead of syllabus. GRADING: Grading will be IAW USAACE 350-16. Always verify date and correct Event for the student being graded. Required Qualities and Written Comments for individual tasks will be annotated in that task comment block. Bold maneuvers are the minimum maneuvers required for evaluation. 8. COUNT: IP's will input the number of iterations a task was performed by clicking in the COUNT box for that task. DM: The DM column will be used for completion of all Demonstration (DM) and Familiarization (FM) Tasks. IP's will record the number of iterations performed in the COUNT box.

8 Unless otherwise specified in the POI/FTG all FM tasks will be performed a minimum of two times. FM tasks are those tasks that are familiarized and performed by the student, but are not required to be trained or performed to a P3 level (also known in older POI's as Demonstrate and Practice Tasks [DM/P]). 9. MODIFIER Block: When required the correct modifier must be entered. Add Tng- Adds syllabus time. Make-up time Does not add additional syllabus time. STATUS Block: Complete or Incomplete, if incomplete give reason below. REASON Block: If applicable state reason why the event is incomplete. PROGRESSION Block: WAIVE only used when authorized by the Brigade Commander. PROF. ADVANCE only used when an aviator is allowed to check early due to proficiency ( Graduate Course, UND student).

9 DURATION: Verify correct time from Training Data block on the Flight Record was entered. If not go back and review flight record to ensure it is filled in correctly. GRND RUN: Used by MTPC to record and track ground run time. OVERALL GRADE: IAW 350-16, No Grade (NG) will be used when there is a no fly event, incomplete check rides, if an event is waived by the Brigade Commander, Proficiency Advance, or if an event is not needed because a student is ahead of syllabus. CAT HOURS: Act: Cumulative hours logged for that Stage/Phase broken down into Flight, Device, Academic, and Ground Run. Plan: Syllabus Time up to that Training day per current phase. TOTAL HOURS: Total hours for all Stages and Phases for the course the student is enrolled in.

10 10. 2-3 CLONING. Cloning is completed as a way to keep a student at the correct P3 level and to account for Training not completed. It is not a way to track a student's attendance. The following cases are the only situations that require cloning. EVENT NOT COMPLETE. If syllabus time is not flown and/or the Training was deemed by the IP to be non- effective ( Weather only allowed Training in the hover area) that Training event was not completed then that event status will be INC- Incomplete with the proper reason listed in the REASON Block ( WX, IP, IE, AI) the event is cloned and scheduled for completion on the following day. Two or more no fly days in a row. Anytime anything is graded for that event ( Oral Knowledge during a weather day) those tasks are graded, the event is marked as INC with reason and cloned.
