## Preface

TC 3-04.12, in conjunction with TC 3-04.11 and AR 95-1, establishes the forms and documents utilized in support of aircrew mission planning and the aircrew training program (ATP). The aircrew training manuals (ATMs) are published on the Directorate of Training and Doctrine (DOTD) webpage. Due to the removal of the ATMs from the APD queue, this TC is designated as the prescribing publication for the required performance planning cards (PPCs). The principal audience for TC 3-04.12 is all Army aircrew members and flight personnel. Commanders, staffs, and subordinates ensure that their decisions and actions comply with applicable United States, international, and in some cases host-nation laws and regulations. Commanders at all levels ensure that their Soldiers operate according to the law of war and the rules of engagement. (See FM 6-27/MCTP 11-10C.)
TC 3-04.12 uses joint terms where applicable. Selected joint and Army terms and definitions appear in both the glossary and the text. For definitions shown in the text, the term is italicized and the number of the proponent publication follows the definition. This publication is not the proponent for any Army terms.

This TC applies to Active Army, Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, United States Army Reserve, and all other individuals flying Army aircraft unless otherwise stated.

The proponent for this publication is the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command. The preparing agency is the DOTD, United States Army Aviation Center of Excellence (USAACE). Send comments and recommendations on DA Form 2028 (*Recommended Changes to Publications and Blank Forms*) to Commander, USAACE, ATTN:

## Introduction

TC 3-04.12 provides rated aviators and unmanned aircraft crewmembers with the required and optional forms that assist in the mission planning process. The instructions for the forms located within this publication are meant to serve as general guidelines for completing the forms. This document does not include the in-depth instructions for all forms, as that information is still located within the individual tasks located on the DOTD website. The individual tasks include detailed information and in-depth procedures to obtain the information required on the forms. As stated in AR 95-1, TC 3-04.11 prescribes the ATP. TC 3-04.11 states that the ATM is the primary publication used to train aircrews per established standards. This document precedes the ATM in its administration of forms.

If a conflict exists between this publication and any other aviation training publication (excepting ARs and TC 3-
04.11), this publication takes precedence.

Waiver authority for items other than those listed in AR 95-1 and contained in this publication, individual tasks, or documents resides with the Directors of the DOTD and Directorate of Evaluation and Standardization. All waiver requests must be endorsed by the commander or senior leader of the requesting activity and forwarded to usarmy.rucker.avncoe.mbx.atzq-tdt- f@mail.mil for disposition.

This revision includes numerous changes and additions:


Removes PPCs for TH-67, MI-17, and OH-58.

DA Form 7748 (*Army Instrument Flight Log*) was also removed due to standards nonconformance
prescribed by the ATMs.

DA Form 7749 (*Army Aviation Instrument Flight Log, Alternate*) was modified to better align
with the ATMs and is now the primary Army Aviation instrument flight log.

Minor changes to DA Form 5701-47 (*CH-47 Performance Planning Card*). Center of gravity
operative and inoperative airspeed sections were added to enhance performance planning.

DA Form 7916 (*Army Aviation Time Distance and Heading Card*) has been added to this
publication to standardize forms for future mission planning software.
TC 3-04.12 contains ten chapters:


Chapter 1 provides the emergency global positioning system approach card and abbreviated
instructions.

Chapters 2 through 8 contain the performance planning cards for Army aircraft currently in the
regular Army inventory.

Chapter 9 contains the standardized time distance and heading card that should be utilized for
tactical flight.

Chapter 10 references the new instrument flight log.
