===Intro===
 
  
 
The Basic Syllabus gives an overall picture of what is expected to be accomplished by our A-10C pilots and should be seen as a minimum level of knowledge. The syllabus should be used to identify educational needs and help you set up training goals for the next sortie. When you can complete all parts of the syllabus without the need for external assistance, you should be well prepared to complete the Basic Qualification.

Home >> Aircraft Syllabi >> A-10C Warthog Syllabus

Basic Section

The Basic Syllabus gives an overall picture of what is expected to be accomplished by our A-10C pilots and should be seen as a minimum level of knowledge. The syllabus should be used to identify educational needs and help you set up training goals for the next sortie. When you can complete all parts of the syllabus without the need for external assistance, you should be well prepared to complete the Basic Qualification.

If not specified in the Syllabus all procedures are to be followed as described in the A-10C II Manual.

If you are new to the MA-community, be sure to read about our procedures around the airfield (Linked below) to ensure everyone can have a safe training environment. Good luck and have fun!
