This report presents results of an evaluation of the Army's 175/40 Initial Entry Rotary Wing (IERW) training program. The program consists of 175 flight and 40 simulator hours. In the last training phase of the program, students are divided into two training tracks, i.e., Utility Helicopter and Aeroscout. Data were gathered from IERW training files and through questionnaires administered to instructors at the Army Aviation Center and to unit instructors, supervisors, and program graduates at aviation field units world-wide. Data were gathered on graduates of both the 175/40 program and the 180/20 program that preceded it, and comparisons between the two programs are made. Results and conclusions are presented with reference to nine specific evaluation objectives. Major conclusions are: (1) the 175/40 IERW course is accomplishing its objectives; (2) the 175/40 course is an improvement over the 180/20 course; and (3) proficiency progression and individualized training can play an effective role in IERW training.
