CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

This ATM describes training requirements for AH-64 aviators and aircrews. It will be used with TC 1-210, AR 95-1, AR 95-3, AR 600-105, AR 600-106, NGR 95-210, and other applicable publications. The tasks in this ATM enhance training in both individual aviator and aircrew proficiency. The training focuses on the accomplishment of tasks that support the unit's mission. The scope and level of training to be achieved individually by aviators and collectively by aircrews will be dictated by the METL. The unit training program must ensure that aircrews are proficient in mission-essential tasks.

1-1. CREW STATION DESIGNATION

1-2. BATTLE ROSTERING

Battle rostering is the designation of two or more individuals to perform as a crew. Commanders make battle-rostered assignments and should enforce their practice, when possible, consistent with crew resources available in the unit. They should assign an individual to a crew as soon as possible after his arrival in the unit, even if he is required to undergo qualification, refresher, or mission training. The individual may begin flying as a member of that crew while in mission training. TC 1-210 further defines battle rostering.
