MOI / QC

BWSOur mission in the MOI/QC (Method of Instruction/ Quality Control) section at BWS is to initially train flight instructors. We train active Army, Department of the Army Civilians, and our Instructors to the highest possible standard so that we can continue to support the world’s greatest Army Aviation Fighting Force.

Our goal is to produce the most highly skilled instructor possible. Then hone and maintain that cutting edge to equip the instructor to train the students to war fighting readiness in individual tasks and lay the Aviation Warrior foundation to help deliver to the field units an Aviator ready for crew integration.
