If not specified in the Syllabus all procedures are to be followed as described in the AH-64D Manual. 

"DCS AH-64D Quick Start Manual EN" can be found in the DCS installation folder "DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\AH-64D\Doc"

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!

- Runways
- Taxiways
- TACAN/ILS Freq
- Entry/Exit points

The goal should be to fly the AH-64D as a crew (Pilot/CPG) to reach its full potential. However, In order to train effectively on your own, you as a pilot/CPG you must be able to use George. Therefore you should be able to complete everything described in the Pilot/CPG "Basic Section" below with George. During Qualification your examiner will fly with you as Pilot/CPG.

Pilot

Basic Section

The Basic Syllabus gives an overall picture of what is expected to be accomplished by our AH-64 pilots and CPG’s 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.
