Improving Naval Aviation Maintenance Operability in Support of CONUS Detachments

Abstract

Naval Aviation currently operates as complete, internally supported squadrons responsible for their own maintenance equipment for operations. In this capacity, a squadron conducting training detachments away from its home station is required to transport all imperative equipment and personnel via contracted ground and government air transport. Because there is no additional equipment capacity to draw from for detachments, flight operations at the home station are reduced during the ground transportation period. This proposal assesses if it is beneficial for the Naval Aviation enterprise to continue the current transportation procedures of aviation maintenance equipment to detachments within the continental United States.
