NAVAL AIR SYSTEMS COMMAND, PATUXENT RIVER, Md.-- Naval Aviation Training Systems program office (PMA-205) delivered a SH-60B Seahawk Tactical Operational Flight Trainer (TOFT) to Marine Corps Base Hawaii (MCBH), in late 2010.
“With the new TOFT on location, the crews have more simulation time affording proficiency in mission readiness while staying close to home, thus eliminating cost associated with flying crews to the mainland. ” said Capt. John Feeney, Naval Aviation Training Systems program manager ,PMA-205 .
Previously, aircrews from Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron Light THIRTY-SEVEN (HSL-37) homeported at MCBH would travel to Naval Air Station North Island, Calif., for simulation training.
