Pilot

Basic Section

The Basic Syllabus gives an overall picture of what is expected to be accomplished by our OH-58D 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.
