LETTER OF PROMULGATION

1.The Naval Air Training and Operating Procedures Standardization (NATOPS)Program is a positive approach toward improving combat readiness and achieving asubstantial reduction in the aircraft mishap rate. Standardization, based on professionalknowledge and experience, provides the basis for development of an efficient and soundoperational procedure. The standardization program is not planned to stifle individualinitiative, but rather to aid the Commanding Officer in increasing the unit's combatpotential without reducing command prestige or responsibility.

2.This manual standardizes ground and flight procedures but does not include tacticaldoctrine. Compliance with the stipulated manual requirements and procedures ismandatory except as authorized herein. In order to remain effective, NATOPS must bedynamic and stimulate rather than suppress individual thinking. Since aviation is acontinuing, progressive profession, it is both desirable and necessary that new ideas andnew techniques be expeditiously evaluated and incorporated if proven to be sound. Tothis end, Commanding Officers of aviation units are authorized to modify procedurescontained herein, in accordance with the waiver provisions established by OPNAVInstruction 3710.7, for the purpose of assessing new ideas prior to initiatingrecommendations for permanent changes. This manual is prepared and kept current bythe users in order to achieve maximum readiness and safety in the most efficient andeconomical manner. Should conflict exist between the training and operating proceduresfound in this manual and those found in other publications, this manual will govern.

3.Checklists and other pertinent extracts from this publication necessary to normaloperations and training should be made and carried for use in naval aircraft.

4.Per NAVAIRINST 13034.1 series, this flight clearance product provides NAVAIRairworthiness certification subsequent to design engineering review. It does not authorizeaircraft system modification, nor does it satisfy NAVAIR requirements for configurationmanagement. Refer to OPNAVINST 4790.2 series for policy guidance on configurationmanagement and modification authority.
