LT Day,
You're asking the question that many of us a struggling with to answer for
senior managers. Just a comment. Do these same managers, COs, etc ask the
question about chemical warfare training, or survival training,or egress
training, or Protection of the President, or Security practices, or flu shots,
or sensitivity training, or whatever?
Many training events have little or no measurable outcome or at least one
which is unethical to do controlled research on. An option to answer this
kind of inquiry is to state that as long as the primary causal factor in 80%
of aircraft mishaps is human error this is our, and their, best hope in
reducing mishaps. When we figure that the Air Force looses 26 aircraft a year
(or so) how do they hope to replace lost assets? CRM training is cheaper.
