5. CNAF FHP Functions
Develop CNAF’s Flying Hour Plan to meet GFM schedule and COCOM requirements for aviation assets.
Participate in Congressional (POM) Budget development
Formulate and provide FHP Budgetary Requirements throughout FYDP for annual POM budget development process
Work directly with PACFLT, USFF, OPNAV and FMB
Monitor current FY program execution
Make Flight Hour / Funding adjustments commensurate w/ emergent requirements, GFM schedule changes, and monetary restrictions
Funding Priorities
1. Deployed Readiness
2. FRS / CNATRA
3. Homeguard Readiness

6. FHP Requirement Development
GFMAP – Global Force Management Allocation Plan
Chaired by JCS and is a DoD process
Held once per year
Typically late January / early February
Translates COCOM presence requirements into ship and expeditionary squadron schedules
Adjudicated requirement by OPNAV N3 with JCS
Final approval lies with SECDEF

7. GFMAP Schedule
Maintenance
Basic
Deployed
Integrated
Sustainment

8. FHP Requirement Development
MAP – Master Aviation Plan
Released twice per year
Usually May and December
Started to plan for transitions and was expanded for all schedules
Translates the GFMAP ship schedule into CVW & expeditionary schedules
Provides roadmap for squadron transitions & CVW / CVN assignments
Final approval lies with CNAF

11. FHP Requirement Development
FRTP – Fleet Response Training Plan
Building block approach to CVW readiness that supports the FRP
Five phases: maintenance, basic, intermediate, sustain, deploy
Optimized FRTP (36 month profile) has been approved
CVN maintenance schedules have changed
Included in MAP 13-02
NOTIONALLY 32 months in duration
Remains program of record
Current readiness standards use a 27 month profile
GFM / MAP schedule dictates actual R / D month assignment
Current year schedule changes

12. Fleet Response Training Plan
Squadron FRTP profiles are based on individual T/M/S T&R matrix requirements and readiness standards
Baseline FRTP funding
T&R requirement according to R+ month assignment
Support hour requirement fully captured and funded (MESH)
GFMAP & MAP define FRP phase. TYCOM assigns R+ month to align entitlements to FRP requirements.
Contingency & multi-national exercises not specifically funded

Fuel (FF)
100% variable cost. Reduce flying, reduce cost.
Consumables (FM)
Items used to sustain or repair aircraft. Reduce flying, reduce most cost. Residual cost incurred as periodic maintenance is performed.
Repairables / AVDLR (FA)

24. Special Interest Categories
OEF Series: OEF-HOA, -PI, -T
OIR – OPERATION INHERENT RESOLVE
ONW – OPERATION NIMBLE WARNING
OJM – OPERATION JUNIPER MICRON
CVW / Type Wing Staff, WTI Hours
NSAWC
Others as directed (i.e. Operation Tomodachi, Operation Damayan)
OCO
Reported on BOR for tracking purposes. Accurate reporting is paramount.

25. If you’re entitled to OCO, you will receive hours.
OCO Process
Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) used to fund hours flown over the baseline in support of COCOM
CNAP funded squadrons will receive quarterly OCO grant
Coordination between CNAP FHP Manager, CVW / Type Wing OPS, and NAVCENT FHP Manager
Same process for CNAP funded squadrons in CNAL air wings
Blend of historical execution by TMS and expected tasking
Baseline hours plus OCO grant is a ceiling. Units cannot exceed that amount without an OCO flight hour augment.
Baseline and OCO hours are not mutually exclusive
Execute TOTAL hours (baseline + OCO) like any “normal” quarter
Accurate BOR data
OCO = Overseas Contingency Operations (the new term for “Cost of War” or “Supplemental”)
If you’re entitled to OCO, you will receive hours.

26. Wing Staff / WTI Hours Reimbursable Staff Hours
CVW staff hours assist in execution of CSG operational requirements (840 hours per year)
WTI, staff FHP requirements executed by fleet assets
WTI, staff hours become “reimbursable” only after 100% execution of baseline quarterly allocation
Example: Squadron Q1 allocation = 1000 hrs
WTI, staff flies 50 hours in squadron aircraft
Unit has flown 990 hrs w/ 1 week remaining in QTR
Funding can be increased to cover up to 1050 hrs (adjusted to cover actual execution above 1000 hrs)
Report all Special Interest Hours on each month’s BOR
TAKE AWAY: WTI, STAFF hours don’t count against you, so FLY THEM. In fact, they can help you. In the example above, let’s say the squadron closes the quarter having only flown 950 hours by its own squadron personnel. This would show an under-execution, however, since they have also used their aircraft to fly 50 WTI and/or CVW Staff hours, the total execution against their FHP is 1000 hrs (or 100% execution). Additionally, OPNAV includes CVW staff and WTI hours in our budget each year so not flying Weapons Schools Instructors and / or CVW staff results in a program under-execution from the OPNAV perspective.
WTI and Staff hours do not count against your quarterly baseline execution. It only helps your execution.

27. Wing Staff / WTI Hours Accurate BOR data is paramount
Q2 Example: report CVW Staff hours each applicable month of the quarter totaling 200 special interest hours

35. FHP Management / Takeaways
Ensure OPS / Maint teams have TMS Readiness Standards and all FY15 Guidance messages
GFM schedule dictates your FRTP; CNAP assigns R+ months
Flight hour funding determined by referencing R+ month in the applicable TMS Readiness Standard
Hours execution is the primary goal NOT 7B execution
Coordinate early with CNAP FHP Manager for all augment requests (hours, 7B, 7F) to prevent a negative BOR.
CPH may fluctuate during FRTP (ARP, fighter detachments); CNAP will ensure total HOURS requirement will be fully funded.
Accurate reporting of hours in BOR
Execute to ~105% in support of your squadron T&R (per TMS readiness standards) plus CVW / type wing staff and WTI.
