1
00:00:00,166 --> 00:00:04,000
I'm Major Abby Gromowsky, and I'm a pilot out at Joint Base Pearl Harbor, Hickam.

2
00:00:04,583 --> 00:00:08,750
I'm an instructor and evaluator pilot here at the 535th Airlift Squadron.

3
00:00:09,250 --> 00:00:11,875
This sortie we're training an integrated mission sortie,

4
00:00:11,875 --> 00:00:16,041
which is how we would fly essentially if we were in a wartime scenario.

5
00:00:16,083 --> 00:00:20,125
Different threats would pop up and we would coordinate with a C2 agency,

6
00:00:20,125 --> 00:00:23,958
and then we would adjust and make changes to our plan to be able to accomplish

7
00:00:23,958 --> 00:00:25,333
whatever mission.

8
00:00:25,416 --> 00:00:29,208
My goal is to create efficient and effective copilots

9
00:00:29,583 --> 00:00:32,750
that can make decisions on their own and be able to fly without input from me.

10
00:00:33,083 --> 00:00:36,458
And so the training is me giving them techniques and tactics

11
00:00:36,458 --> 00:00:39,875
to be able to execute on their own.

12
00:00:39,875 --> 00:00:43,166
The way I would consider this training a success

13
00:00:43,166 --> 00:00:45,833
is their constant improvement,

14
00:00:46,583 --> 00:00:48,208
how to fix your own mistakes,

15
00:00:48,208 --> 00:00:52,000
and so ideally, we're developing copilots who can become aircraft commanders,

16
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,000
who can identify those and themselves, and then also in others.

17
00:00:55,041 --> 00:00:57,750
And so that's a big part of our debriefing process.
