V-22 Chosen to be the new COD
- Thread starter lowflier03
- Start date
The Navy training track for the CMV-22 has not been established, but will most likely resemble the Marine Corp track. That track does not include the T-45.

I'm in no rush to start flight training I'm just curious how the pipeline is gonna work honestly
Strongly suggest searching the web for CNATRA or "Navy Flight School." Also, you can try reading airwarriors.com.
When the MV-22 pipeline first came out 10 years ago I believe Marines did full C-12 advanced and then full TH-57 advanced... Something about them having more experience before they crashed another one of the things, at the time. Somewhere along the line, someone who could count realized it took their guys/girls just short of forever to get winged, and it was pretty expensive, so they came up with a bastardized intermediate/advanced pipeline, that's shorter than both full syllabus. I'm not 100% sure if they're allowed to use T-44C But I think they are because everyone else does because of the glass cockpit.
I haven't bothered to ask in about 4Years so I'd wait for a Yut, or someone who actually cares to do the research on the current info answer the question to come along for a better idea of what the training pipeline entails today.
Out of Primary, the track is head over to South Field to fly the -57, then back to Corpus to fly the C-12. I have only heard of guys going to VT-35 in the Osprey pipeline.
Jolly - Do you happen to know if that sequence changed in the last few years? Just curious because a friend of mine from primary went from VT2 to Corpus and then back to Whiting for wings. I thought it was a bit ridiculous at the time, but I guess you would have the same issue with studs who did primary in Corpus the way you described it currently.
I am not sure if the sequence changed, but I do know that if selected Ospreys out of Primary from Corpus or you are a re-tread from Kingsville you will go Whiting then back to Corpus for wings.
And the TAD/drug money was awesome but I believe it has been nixed, just like all E2/C2 orders are PCS now with the last class of TDY/per diem winged on 31 July.
At one of our recent Commodore's calls, they mentioned the new osprey pipeline that should be rolling out in 2016. Our Commodore said the latest change will be students who select osprey's will stay in the VT's to complete an extended instrument syllabus in the T6. After that they will head to south field for the full helicopter advanced syllabus.
