members who are in a flying status and whose billets require frequent
and regular aerial flight as a fundamental aspect of those jobs.
Flight time shall be apportioned based on the needs of the Service.
No member shall be exposed to the hazards of aviation solely for the
purpose of qualifying for HDIP. The member's flight orders shall
specify the member's crew member/noncrew member status and aviation
incentive pay status. Determinations that flight orders are required
shall be made on a case by case basis by the flight order issuing
authority. Commands should give careful consideration as to who

crew member flight orders of enlisted members, these flight
orders are typically issued for the duration of the member's
assignment to a particular billet at that command and do not
specify a termination date. Continuous crew member flight
