Video Description

The 47th Flying Training Wing at Laughlin Air Force Base in Texas runs the Air Force’s largest Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training program. The yearlong program trains new pilots for the US Air Force, Air Force Reserve, Air National Guard, and allied nations. After logging 50 to 60 hours in advanced flight simulators, students step inside the cockpit of a turboprop aircraft, where they learn to master basic aerobatics, navigation, and formation flying. Those who graduate are assigned an aircraft and continue on to their next phase: aircraft-specific training at operational bases around the country. 00:00 - Intro 01:15 - History & Requirements 02:29 - Training Aircrafts 02:50 - Academics 03:57 - Simulator Training 05:54 - Pilot Shortage 06:29 - Aerospace Physicology 07:32 - Egress Training 08:21 - Equipment Fitting 09:24 - Training Cost 09:54 - T-6 Training 13:59 - Wing Ceremony 14:52 - T-38 Training 17:21 - Drop Night 18:23 - Graduation ------------------------------------------------------ #airforce #military #businessinsider #bootcamp MORE BUSINESS INSIDER VIDEOS: How Air Force Drone Pilots "Fly" The $32 Million MQ-9 Reaper Drone | Boot Camp | Business Insider https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kQAnhET0ec The True Cost Of Killer Drones | True Cost | Business Insider https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MapFmEnDa4 What New Air Force Pilots Go Through In Flight School | Boot Camp | Business Insider https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVFzCzN4hds Business Insider tells you all you need to know about business, finance, tech, retail, and more.
