Purpose: Air Mobility Command (AMC) has an need for the studies and analyses phase of the emerging Universal Aeromedical Evacuation Crew Member (AECM) training system. A preliminary Training Situation Analysis (early analysis) and a Training Situation Requirements Analysis (TSRA) are required to enable the development and containment of a System Training Plan (STP). This approach is needed to fulfill the requirements of Air Force Instruction 36-2251, Management of Air Force Training Systems and enable the prolonged success of the Aeromedical Evacuation mission. These Studies and Analyses will also enable the development of draft syllabi, lesson specifications, and the implementation of a training system concurrency strategy for the universal AECM training system. This effort is needed in FY08 to support the development of the emerging AECM training system by FY09 for U.S. Air Force Active Duty, Air National Guard, Air Force Reserve, and potentially allied nation AECMs. The studies and analyses are needed to provide recommendations for, and the development of, a STP in accordance with the DoD perspective and intentions described in AFI 36-2251. A Total System Approach is required to optimize total system performance and minimize total ownership costs by employing Instructional Systems Devlopment (ISD) principles from AFMAN 36-2234. The urgency of the effort is required to support the acquistion of an AECM training device (long-lead item) and the establishment of a formal AECM schoolhouse C-17 Cargo Compartment Trainer (Aeromedical Evacuation Fuselage Trainer) Description: 1. Static aeromedical trainer with same height, width and length of Boeing C-17 aircraft within a hanger. System needs to enclose crew for use as ?static mission? trainer as well as be utilized for static training events. 2. Trainer needs to have configurable cargo compartment to include use of litter stanchions and loading of Patient Support Pallet (standard AF pallet). Working troop doors, forward entrance escape door, crew entrance door that opens and closed but not pressurized, maintenance ditch hatch and functioning FEDS hatches- not pressurized, and Operational ramp with weight bearing of 10,000 pounds. 3. Students/instructors must be able to accomplish the following on the AE cargo Compartment trainer: a. Access and operate entry/exit of ground/ditch exits within the cargo compartment b. Litter Station Assembly sets (3) on fuselage with cargo floor for max capability for 12 litter stations c. IV holders on fuselage d. Intercommunication system e. Electrical system and backup AE system 115 AC 60 Hz /115/200V/400Hz AC power receptacles (6) f. Aircraft lighting to include blue/NVG lighting g. Emergency and Therapeutic oxygen system interface ? utilizing compressed air h. Loadmaster station with complete oxygen system management system and instructor computer interface (turn left panel into instructor computer monitoring station) Trainer Requirements: 1. Access/Operate a. Functional ramp similar to aircraft with decreased weight bearing requirements b. Partial loadmaster areas (STAXXX)-computer areas c. Cockpit stairway and maintenance ditch catwalk access d. Crew entrance door that opens/closes to locked point but not pressurized e. Functional Troop doors f. Functional Forward Escape Hatch g. Survival Equipment locker door h. Lavatory -door i. Galley area? not functioning j. Loadmaster seat and controls ? oxygen control required all others replaced with computer monitors for instructor interface k. Tie down Storage Containers (2 of 10 required 8 of 10 decals acceptable) l. Escape ladders and release handles m. External Initiator handle access and Internal Feds initiator n. Ropes, rope stowage Not Required: Troop Water containers Urinals Tow release Mechanism Cargo Wench Forward Stop Assay Gate Release Mechanism Air Deflector Control Valve Liner Door (simulated) Static Line Jump Platforms 2. Cargo Floor and Ramp: Cargo Handling System ?not required a. Need to be able to access D-ring assembly Rail System Roller conveyor System Stabilizer Struts /control manifold decal only Ramp Toes Load master Aft control panel ?functioning to open/close ramp Ramp Blow Down panels ?decal only Aeromedical Litter station fittings Ramp Center line actuators/locks for Litter Station Assembly Set stowage Box Ramp exterior lighting same as C-17 Not Required: Roller Conveyor Stowage Underfloor Access/equipment ADS Lind/Plugs? Ditching/FEDS actuator handles on ramp 3. Cargo Compartment Interior walls a. Logistics Pallet Sidewall Control ? decal all but No 1on forward left b. MA-1 Bottle Storage Locations with equipment (6) and recharger hoses c. Passenger Emergency Oxygen system panels 2 per side functioning rest decaled d. Halo Oxygen outlets (1) rest decaled Aft Loadmaster station oxygen control Panel ? decal only First aid kits ? 5 ? rest decal Fire extinguisher storage locations ?without Halon 1211 fore extinguishers ?use ABC fire extinguishers Iv holders ?(per TO) Electrical control panels (2) fully functional (4) decaled with 115 AC/60 Hz Outlets/ 120V/400hz outlets (2) one per side rest decaled with 20 Amp capability Litter Emergency Oxygen and therapeutic outlets (6) right fuselage Litter station and utility panels (3) EEBDs (2) rest decaled Passenger sidewall Seats 10 per side Aeromedical Electrical 28V DC/Litter Emergency oxygen panels (6) Left side Only Crew Entrance Door Port hole Crew Entrance Door Pressure Gauge Color Decal/instruction decal Litter station stowage compartments (3 ? 2 right/1 left) Chopping locations Centerline oxygen shutoff door ?decal Cargo pallet numbering 4. Aeromedical Litter Station Assemblies sets with utility panels (9) 5. System must be able to provide cool or heated environment based on building it is located for student use 6. Lighting ? Integral lighting for white lights (bright/dim) and low level lighting (blue/green) 7. Audio Sound Effects: Fidelity and volume to simulate those in a C-17 a. Aircraft Emergency alarm bell sounds will utilize existing aircraft bells and will be operated manually by push button switch under instructor control at forward load station b. Generated sounds activated by push button at forward load station will include: 1. On-ground APU start and continuous run 2. Engine start and ground idle run (taxi) 3. Take0off, climb out continuous in-flight cruise 4. one engine emergency landing 5. wheels up landing c. PA system at load master station similar to aircraft system d. Interphone system ? loadmaster station forward and aft and cargo bay on right fuselage (STAXXX) and one external for outside instructor 8. Vibration a. Cargo bay floor will vibrate during engine start, taxi, takeoff and cruise-to provide stress cues to the students and controlled at forward load station by instructor b. Frequencies and amplitude of vibration will correspond to best extent possible c. Vibration may be produced acoustically by use of low frequency sound and additional structural vibration will be induced by mechanical vibration generators as required 9. FEDS (4) ? need to be able to actuate simulated FEDS (hatches) to access life rafts and platform on top of trainer.
