69 -- COMPUTER BASED TRAINING FOR THE E6B AIRCRAFT POC Contact, Sherry Bonaiuto, Phone (703)604-2000 As part of a market survey, the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) is interested in obtaining information on computer based training (CBT) for subsystems of the E-6B aircraft such as the environment control system, DAISS/ICS communication system, hydraulics systems, fuel systems, and the auxiliary power unit which fully utilizes the capabilities of modern technology. It is requested that each response include details on how the instructional systems design approach will be incorporated. Technical data such as the Logistics Support Analysis and existing paper based courseware will be available to identify maintenance tasks and the present curriculum approved required to support the systems. A description of how to identify or confirm the tasks which require training, how to determine which tasks can be supported with CBT tools, and how to model the CBT system to a level of detail which will enable graphical depiction of the system operation necessary to ensure the transfer of knowledge for effective maintenance of the system is required. The Navy is particularly interested in maximizing the use of self paced CBT media where appropriate. A training management system compatible with the proposed CBT system should also be addressed. Cost is a major consideration and solutions should address cost as an independent variable. Maintenance and life cycle support costs must be addressed. Send two copies of the response, NLT 10 October 1996 to: Commander, Naval Air Systems Command (Code AIR-2.3.1.4.3), 1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22243.

NAVAIR will protect proprietary and classified information from unwanted disclosure. In addition to the written submissions, briefings/demonstrations of the response will be allowed upon request. Briefings/demonstrations will be limited to one hour and held at NAWC-AD Pax River, Maryland. No government funding will be provided for this event.
