New Scheduling System Streamlines Test and Maintenance Planning PRSRT STD US POSTAGE PAID TULLAHOMA TN Vol. 66, No. 17 Arnold AFB, Tenn. PERMIT NO. 29 September 3, 2019 New scheduling system streamlines test and maintenance planning By Bradley Hicks AEDC Public Affairs Ensuring resources such as utili- ties, facilities and personnel are avail- able to accommodate high-priority test and maintenance projects is essential to the success of the AEDC mission. In an effort to reduce work impacts and delays due to resource unavail- ability and conflicts in testing sched- ules, a new single master schedule was developed by National Aerospace Solutions. It will improve near- and long-term planning, decision making, efficiency and effectiveness. The Integrated Scheduling Sys- tem, or ISS, is now in use at Arnold Air Force Base and, to a lesser extent, AEDC Hypervelocity Wind Tunnel 9 in White Oak, Maryland, and the National Full-Scale Aerodynamics Complex at Moffett Field in Mountain View, California. The ISS is a set of databases designed to collect project management information for test, re- pair and investment, and maintenance projects to plan and analyze the most effective way to approach and com- plete these projects. A Pratt & Whitney F100 engine undergoes Accelerated Mission Testing in the AEDC Sea Level Test Cell 3. Resources needed for testing, such as AMT, are loaded into the Integrated Scheduling System, now in use at Arnold Air Force Base, to predict and manage project performance through appropriate integration, de-confliction and optimization, al- See SYSTEM, page 3 lowing AEDC to meet its strategic, operational and tactical priorities.

  • Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015
    Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015 – The Air Force is committed to preventing, deterring, and prosecuting sexual assault in its ranks. This report contains a synopsis of sexual assault cases taken to trial by court-martial. The information contained herein is a matter of public record. This is the final report of this nature the Air Force will produce. All results of general and special courts-martial for trials occurring after 1 April 2015 will be available on the Air Force’s Court-Martial Docket Website (www.afjag.af.mil/docket/index.asp). SIGNIFICANT AIR FORCE SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE SUMMARIES 2010 – March 2015 Note: This report lists cases involving a conviction for a sexual assault offense committed against an adult and also includes cases where a sexual assault offense against an adult was charged and the member was either acquitted of a sexual assault offense or the sexual assault offense was dismissed, but the member was convicted of another offense involving a victim. The Air Force publishes these cases for deterrence purposes. Sex offender registration requirements are governed by Department of Defense policy in compliance with federal and state sex offender registration requirements. Not all convictions included in this report require sex offender registration. Beginning with July 2014 cases, this report also indicates when a victim was represented by a Special Victims’ Counsel. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, sexual assaults against those 16 years of age and older are charged as crimes against adults. The appropriate disposition of sexual assault allegations and investigations may not always include referral to trial by court-martial.

These challenges system, with sustainment costs alone are largely the result of sustainment plans that do not fully include key estimated at more than $1 trillion over requirements or aligned (timely and sufficient) funding. DOD is taking steps to a 60-year life cycle. As the F-35 address some challenges, but without more comprehensive plans and aligned program approaches full-rate funding, DOD risks being unable to fully leverage the F-35’s capabilities and production, DOD is working to deliver sustain a rapidly expanding fleet. an affordable sustainment strategy that is able to meet the needs of the military Table: Key Department of Defense (DOD) Challenges for F-35 Aircraft Sustainment services. This strategy is being tested Key challenge Description as DOD stands up military depots, Limited repair capacity DOD’s capabilities to repair F-35 parts at military depots are 6 years trains personnel, and supports its first at depots behind schedule, which has resulted in average part repair times of 172 operational squadrons—with plans to days—twice the program’s objective (see figure 1).
