Why are some F-14 and A-6 squadrons head and shoulders above others? What makes a squadron excellent? This is the question for this research. The study was conducted in two phases. Phase one involved interviews with 25 senior officers with some past experience in F-14 and A-6 communities. They were queried about their definitions of excellence and were asked to nominate a squadron which met their criteria for excellence. Phase two began with the tabulation of excellent squadrons selected by the...

PLEASE READ BEFORE PRINTING!!!!!! Gonk Droid from Squadrons for in the cockpit remixed from superbob's Gonk model. For some reason F360 exported the parts of the Gonk way huge so when you open them into you slicer, do it one at a time and scale it to 0.4% and 10% for the base. Orient the Gonk parts so that the two halves have the larger middle section against the bed and flip the base so that the text is facing up to minimize support. Buy some springs to glue to create the bobble effect and...

15-Jan-2021: This is a raw extract mesh of a Resistance Bomber Chest Box. The model is also used as a New Republic chest box for the 'Tactical' variant flightsuit in Star Wars: Squadrons (Scale up by 106.667%). As of now, this mesh should be considered reference only, and will likely not print, or print poorly. Future updates to this project should bring it to printable status, provided I don't abandon the project. CAD will be provided when it exists.

Five consecutive years In the evolution of nine U.S. Navy air squadrons were studied to determine the effects of organization size on complexity. Path analysis was used to examine hypothesized causal relationships. Size was found to be less influential than had been expected, The longitudinal approach presented different views of the same organization depending on the variables observed and the time between measurements.

https://youtu.be/n3XZQ9La7l0 Sliding throttle for PC. I made this modular because of my small printer (ender 2). Its also easier to customize to your needs. For the electronics is used an old flightstick. U could use a different microcontroller, for example arduino micro pro or u could extend the potentiometer from your flightstick. For the bottom 2 tubes i used a 12mm aluminum pipe. The slider rods are 8mm. I glued 4 linear bearings onto the grip base, 2 on each side. U could also print out...

My wall was blank so I made this 2D-like model of the famous X-wing fighter from Star Wars. Because of the huge dimensions of the fighter, I had to split the model into 12 pieces. The final length is about 110 cm! But: The project was designed to be printed by a 3D-printer with a 300mm X 300mm build plate. Issues with smaller build plate dimensions are possible. Not each of the 12 pieces has to be printed seperately, because some parts can be printed together. Those are the...

Budgetary pressures make it difficult for Naval aviation leaders to balance operations, procurement, and personnel to maintain appropriate levels of readiness to meet the demands of combatant commanders. The Naval Aviation Enterprise has had success in reducing the cost of Naval aviation, but operational squadrons are not systematically included in those efforts.

The case is presented that fighter squadron commanders frequently experience death in their squadrons with little experience or guidance concerning how to face the situation. A plan to educate the commander is outlined that includes familiarization with classical, psychological responses to death and also learning of the responsibilities expected of the commander. The emphasis is on education to remove the unknowns. Techniques are discussed on how to share this information with squadron members...

The purpose of the report is to examine the potential for dividing large 600 to 1700 person civil engineering (CE) organizations into multiple 300 to 400 person squadrons. There are obvious reasons to be concerned with the size of 600 to 1700 person CE squadrons, which are among the largest in the Air Force. The report identifies potential opportunities to divide large CE units into multiple squadrons, discusses sample precedent, analyzes resultant pros and cons, and provides recommendations.

Presently, two airframes, the UH-1N Huey and the AH-1W Super Cobra, are combined into composite Marine light attack helicopter squadrons (HMLAs). With the introduction of the UH- 1Y, the Marine Corps must reconsider the composition of the HMLA. In order to implement the lessons learned from Viet Nam, maximize training during high operational tempo, and enable effective task organization for the MAGTF Commander, the HMLA must be decomposed.

The Department of the Navy currently has 11 nuclear-powered aircraft carriers (CVN), which are the centerpiece of carrier strike groups (CSG). The Fleet Response Plan (FRP) dictates CSG deployment and readiness cycles. Based on the FRP, the Navy produces a Master Aviation Plan that assigns 10 carrier-airwings (CVW) to CVNs and carrier-based squadrons to CVWs. At any given time, there are at most 38 strike-fighter squadrons to fill 40 possible assignments. Because there are not enough to fill...

The paper acknowledges the evolution and the forward strides the Air Force (AF) has made to provide a program allowing airman on-duty time to become fit to fight. However, AF squadrons appear to be focused on fit to test versus providing airman opportunities to change their lifestyles. This focus is evident in the non-compliance with...

An aviation squadron's flight schedule has a major impact on that organization's performance and morale. The ability to consistently draft a correct flight schedule that accounts for all applicable factors, requires a flight schedules officer with significant experience and good judgement.

An aging high maintenance fleet and low pilot retention add to the difficulty of ensuring training goals can be reached.

However, in the micro view the number of aircraft assigned per squadron significantly impacts a unit's...
