This manual is intended for use by all Army crewmembers in meeting requirements set forth in Army Regulation 95-1, Training Circular 1-210, and other appropriate aircrew training manuals. Lessons learned from previous military conflicts and recent contingency operations have caused changes in Army aviation doctrine. With the development of more sophisticated aircraft and weapons systems, Army crewmembers must be capable of operating these systems around the clock, in austere environments, and under adverse conditions. The hazards of stress and fatigue in combat operations and concept of operations will eventually take a toll in aircrew performance and could jeopardize mission accomplishment unless crewmembers are trained to recognize and understand these hazards. Proper training prepares crewmembers and prevents stress and fatigue from reducing mission effectiveness, thereby increasing their chances of survival. Training Circular 3-04.93 provides crewmembers with an understanding of the physiological responses that can occur in the aviation environment. It also describes the effects of the flight environment on individual mission accomplishment. In addition, this publication outlines essential aeromedical training requirements (in Chapter 1) that assist commanders and flight surgeons in conducting aeromedical education for Army crewmembers. Subject areas addressed are by no means all inclusive but are presented to assist crewmembers in increasing performance and efficiency. This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, and the United States Army Reserve unless otherwise stated.

Aeromedical psychology is that branch of psychology pertaining to the assessment, selection and evaluation of aviation personnel. This book, Aeromedical Psychology, is designed to provide the means for a variety of clinicians to carry out sound assessment and selection procedures, perform informed evaluations and make subsequent recommendations regarding flight status and treatment strategies geared to the aviation environment. To facilitate a dynamic understanding of the field, the book emphasizes an integration of applications and theory, case examples and research. The book is divided into three parts. The first presents assessment and selection procedures for aviation personnel (i.e. air traffic controllers, flight officers and pilots) and astronauts and the many ways in which both psychologists and psychiatrists are involved in these roles. In the second part, the waiver standards put forth by both the FAA and the various branches of the military are presented, as well as the waiver decision process. Clinical issues unique to aviation - notably fear of flying, motivation to fly and airsickness - are addressed, as well as possible courses of intervention, treatment and disposition. In the final part, more specialized issues pertaining to aeromedical psychology are dealt with, namely the psychopharmacological research and regulations applicable to recreational pilots and aviation personnel, managing the aftermath of aviation mishaps and the psychologist's role in accident investigations.

This manual, Training Circular TC 3-04.93 Aeromedical Training for Flight Personnel with Change 1 January 2019, provides crewmembers with an understanding of the physiological responses that can occur in the aviation environment. It also describes the effects of the flight environment on individual mission accomplishment. In addition, this publication outlines essential aeromedical training requirements that assist commanders and flight surgeons in conducting aeromedical education for Army crewmembers. Subject areas addressed are by no means all-inclusive but are presented to assist crewmembers in increasing performance and efficiency. This publication contains guidelines for aircrew training program commanders, flight surgeons, rated crewmembers (RCMs), nonrated crewmembers (NRCMs), and nonrated non-crewmembers (NCM). The principal audience for TC 3-04.93 is Army Aviation, primarily fixed-wing (FW) and rotary-wing (RW) crewmembers and UAS operators. It is applicable to division, corps, the Theater Aviation Command, Theater Command, Area Sustainment Command, and the Army Aviation community, including members of allied, coalition, and civil defense support of civil authorities' forces. Implementation of this publication conforms to Army Regulation (AR) 95-1, TC 3-04.11, and appropriate aircrew training manuals.To keep pace with the current operating environment, the development of more sophisticated aircraft, and improvements in weapons systems, Army crewmembers must be capable of operating these systems for extended periods of time, in austere environments, and under adverse conditions. The associated physiological impacts of operating under such conditions could impact aircrew performance and jeopardize mission accomplishment unless crewmembers are trained to recognize and understand these aeromedical factors. Spatial disorientation is the physiologic factor that contributes most often to aircraft mishaps. TC 3-04.93 updates previous doctrine and utilizes lessons learned from recent military conflicts and contingency operations in order to incorporate the most relevant training methods related to spatial disorientation (SD).
