- When you agree to take this role and upon completion of our evaluation, we expect you to prepare dutifully before an Operation on the Air Frame. -


Evaluation Process

   2. Confined Landing.
   3. Orbit of a fixed area.
   4. Nap of the Earth (NOE) route
   5. Terrain Masking Movement     



- We're looking for smooth control, ingress that's not "ballooning" and with consistent flight level that leads into a smooth transition to landing.
