1 - Aviation Pre-flight Indoctrination (API)API is the introduction of flight basics to the SNA. Students are in classes such as introduction to basic aerodynamics, aviation weather, air navigation, flight rules and regulations, and aircraft engines and systems. The SNA is also exposed to aviation physiology through classes with the Naval Operational Medical Institute, learning about how flight affects the human body. 2 - Primary Flight TrainingPrimary teaches the SNA the basics of flying. For Navy and Marine Corps SNAs, there are two choices for Primary. The Navy offers training at either Naval Air Station Whiting Field in Pensacola, Florida, or Naval Air Station Corpus Christi in Corpus Christi, Texas.
The naval aviator insignia is a warfare qualification of the United States military that is awarded to those aviators of the United States Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard who have qualified as naval aviators. The naval aviator insignia is identical for all three branches, as are the similar naval astronaut and naval flight officer badges.
