Mobile Training Teams (MTT), composed of former U.S. military training instructors, conduct courses worldwide. Curriculums and standards of instruction are based on U.S. Army regulations and technical manuals. Course of instruction includes cargo/extraction parachute packing, airdrop load preparation and airdrop platform/container systems rigging. Class size varies from 10 to 30 students depending upon customer requirements. Course duration is approximately 6 weeks and training objective is to certify students as fully qualified Airdrop Load Riggers.
INTERMEDIATE AIRDROP LOAD FABRICATION COURSE
Designed for students with airdrop fabrication experience. This course is intended as a brief introductory/conversion training program to the Type V Airdrop Platform System and/or the Container Delivery System. Core training objectives concentrate on platform assembly, platform preparation, platform rigging, container preparation and container rigging. Course may also be designed to provide training on Maritime Airdrop (boats). Curriculum can be modified to meet the customer’s specific requirements. Course duration is approximately 3 weeks.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT OPERATIONAL TEST & EVALUATION
Capewell engineers and airdrop experts work independently, or in conjunction with customers on Research and Development (R&D;), Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E;) Programs to certify for airdrop equipment currently in service, or soon to be delivered. Current, or newly purchased items are evaluated for airdrop compatibility. If suitable, a comprehensive package is designed which should include: rigged load drawings, weight and balance calculations and measurements, restraint criteria and energy displacement material (paper honeycomb) configuration.
