Remodeling the Marine Air Traffic Control Officer Training Progression

Abstract

The current Marine Air Traffic Control Officer (MATCO) training progression does not adequately prepare its officers to fill many Air Traffic Control (ATC) billets. Nonstandardization and diversity in training creates officers of unequal skill and comprehension levels. Remodeling the ATC MOS training progression will improve the safety of flight at Marine Corps air stations and deployed forward operating bases (FOBs) while tremendously enhancing ATC interface within the Marine Air Command and Control System (MACCS).
