This report develops quantitative relationships between how much air crews train and how well they perform important aspects of their missions. It examines the performance of Navy Patrol air crews in the P-3 aircraft. The performance data were derived from graded torpedo exercises flown on an instrumented range. The crew must detect, classify, track, and successfully launch an exercise torpedo to qualify in the exercise. The P-3 carries a multi-person crew, including a pilot, tactical coordinator (both officers), and enlisted sensor operators. We gathered data covering both the long-term and short-term training experience of crew members and considered training both in the aircraft and in simulators. Statistical analyses were performed to estimate relationships between training and performance. The analyses showed both short- and long-term positive effects of flying hours on air crew performance. Long-term experience was more important.
