COMMENTARY>>TEAM LITTLE ROCK SCORECARD

The 314th Operations Group is the Department of Defense Formal Training Unit, providing C-130E, C-130J and C-21 initial and mission qualification training to personnel from all services and 38 allied nations. They execute an annual flying-hour program of 15,576 hours. Their active duty and civilian instructors teach ground and flight training in 36 courses including the use of night vision goggles, formation flying and precision airdrop for more than 1,900 aircrew members to support overseas contingency operations.

While they track numerous metrics to assess and monitor their performance, it all comes down to how far ahead or behind they are in student production. The 19th Air Force considers an average of less than five days behind as “on time.”

As of March 16 the FTUs
are all on time

C-130E: 1 day ahead

C-130J: 3 days behind

C-21: 3 days ahead

Current as of Monday
