I thought I would throw this request for info out to the Navy Helicopter community at large - I was a P-3C Flight Engineer in my previous life and now, through the mystery of fate, I am a Instructor Pilot in the Army on the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior - introductions aside -
Having come up through the ranks in the Navy, I became intimately familiar with many variations of PQS. Now, after coming over to the Army, I realized they have nothing of the sort and pretty much have no organization at all to their training. Now, I've got a wild hair, and, while I'm deployed to the sand box for 15 months, I thought I would bide my time by developing an in-house Kiowa Warrior "PQS" for the new guys. I figured a good start would be having a copy of a fleet H-60, -53, or maybe even a schoolhouse TH-57 PQS book (although I'm not sure that would have the same one-liners and "Fly-flights" that I'm thinking of basing my program) to develop my thoughts and help guide my program. If anyone out there could spare a copy, I would greatly appreciate it. I understand OPSEC could be an issue - you can email me at cameron.nowell@us.army.mil or PM me for the mailing address. I am more than willing to repay the cost of shipping and your troubles.
Thanks in advance,
