It addresses instructional category currency, ID sorties, simulator instructor evaluations, and CSIE/SIE selection and responsibilities. It requires instructional sorties every 60 days and instruction in each training category every 120 days to remain current.
Applies to: It does not apply to simulator instructors working under an Aircrew Training System contract, instructors teaching in the T25 simulator for electronic combat training, or Air Battle Management simulator instructors.
All CSIs/SIs must accomplish an instructional sortie every 60 days, and must instruct in each category of training every 120 days to remain current.
CSIs/SIs may update instructional category currency anytime a student mission or ID sortie (including BSI sorties) in that category is accomplished from the cockpit or IOS.
Noncurrent instructors must regain currency before instructing in any non-current category.
To regain category currency, the non-current CSI/SI will instruct from the IOS while being monitored by a current and qualified simulator instructor in that category or complete an ID sortie with a current and qualified simulator instructor which focuses on maneuvers in the non-current category of training.
Conduct all simulator instructor evaluations in accordance with the provisions of this instruction and accomplish on actual student instructional missions whenever possible.
