AIR ACTIVATION SCHEDULE AFFECTING NAVAL AVIATION PERSONNEL

FY 1956 --

1. Three Air Early Warning (Barrier) squadrona VW-11, VW-13 and VW-15 commissioned.

2. AEW Staff commissioned.

3. One ZW squadron (ZW-1) commissioned for AEW Barrier .

4. NAAS Ream Field and NAAS Mayport commissioned.

5. Lages, Azores will be commissioned a s a NAF to support Continental Air Defense 13arrier if Base rights obtained,

6. NAS FORREST SHERMAN established to support 100 hour jet training program.

1. Three additional Air Early Warning (Barrier) squadrons, VW-12, VW-14, and VW- 16 plus Pacific Staff will be commissioned.

2. NAS Rota, Spain will be commissioned if construction permits.

3. NAS Cubi Point will be commissioned.

RESULTANT CHANGES I N MANNING REQUIREMENTS

1. Manning one additional Carr ie r Air Group to full strength will increase the manning, requirements of these forces by 174 officers and 990 enlisted.

2. The addition of 3 Air Early Warning Barr ie r Squadrons and a staff will require 450 officers and 1931 enlisted.

3. One additional ZW squadron will require 26 officers and 112 enlisted to attain 1/2 strength during FY 1956.

4. MATS programed a t 5 hours per day utilization during FY 1956.

5. The manning level of PACFLT Carr ie r Air Groups and their maintenance support units had to be raised 5% during the last half of FY 195!i. This increased manning level will be maintained during FY 1956. Complexity of new equipment and a rapid turn around for car r ie r a i r groups on deployments necessitated this increase.

6. The input to Flight Training was increased on 1 July 1955 to eventually produce 3300 pilots per year. This increased training load and the additional AEW training required in Technical Training will require an additional 508 officers and 2934 enlisted.

7. The new 1000 officer pilot training program will require 1500 code 1300 officer bilL?ts. About 1184 enlisted billets will be required in Technical Training for the AEW Training Program.

8. Continental Air Bases will be reduced about 129 officers in FY 1956.

These new additions to the Fleet Air Line (1-06) have been partially compensated for by the granting of additional billets to the a i r activities. Reduction within the Air Lines has been necessary, particularly in the Continental Air Bases, to make up the deficiency between additional billets authorized the Air Lines and the requirements for new missions.

The manning level of a i r operating forces will remain approximately the same during FY 1956 a s end FY 1955. Additional personnel will be required, a s outlined above, for additionial forces.
