2.
Failure to meet minimum qualifications for job
assignment requiring flight (as determined by
the flight order issuing activity based on
published qualification standards);
3.
Disciplinary reasons (as determined by member's
command); or
4.
Not willing to fly (member's determination).
(b)
Insufficient participation in aerial flight by a crew
member. The following is intended to protect members from
repaid.
1.
Flight order issuing activities should review the
CAIP status of a member issued continuous crew
member flight orders when the member does not earn
HDIP for any two months while in a CAIP status. If
the flight order issuing activity determines that
the member was unable to earn HDIP through no fault
of the member, then the member shall be retained on
continuous crew member flight orders. Otherwise,
the flight order issuing activity should terminate
the member's continuous crew member flight orders
and issue the member monthly crew member flight
orders over a period of six months before returning
the member to continuous crew member flight orders.
Excess flight hours may not be carried forward or
backward between separate flight orders. A change
from continuous to monthly flight orders or a
subsequent termination of monthly flight orders due
to own fault insufficient participation in aerial
flight does not constitute an involuntary removal
from duty involving flying with less than 120 days
notice for enlisted crewmembers under Rules 10-11
of enclosure (7). Effective the date of this
Instruction, when insufficient participation in
aerial flight results in a failure to earn HDIP,
and it is determined to be the fault of the member,
then the subsequent termination of crewmember
flight orders is considered voluntary.
2.
If HDIP is not earned for one of the six months
that the member is on monthly crew member flight
orders, the member should be retained on monthly
crew member flight orders until such time that the
member is no longer required to participate in
frequent and regular aerial flight, typically until
the end of the member's PCS assignment. If the
flight order issuing activity determines that the
member was unable to earn HDIP through no fault of
the member, the member should be returned to
continuous crew member flight orders after the six
month period.
3.
If HDIP is not earned for at least half the six
months that the member is on monthly crew member
flight orders, the member's monthly crew member
flight orders should be terminated and the member
put in an OAIP status.
(c)
Termination of requirement for member to participate in
frequent and regular aerial flight. Subject to the
requirements of paragraph 5.b.(2) below, when the flight
order issuing activity determines that a member's
assignment no longer requires the member to participate in
frequent and regular aerial flight, the member's flight
orders shall be terminated as soon as practicable.
