Abstract
This thesis researched the Tactical Air (TACAIR) portion of the Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific (COMNAVAIRPAC) historical data to determine if there is a relationship between the dollars budgeted for the Flying Hour Program and the hours actually flown under the program. An analysis of the actual FHP execution of the budget for Fiscal Year's (FYs) 1999, 2000 and 2001 was undertaken for four Continental United States (CONUS) based Carrier Air Wings (CVWs). The COMNAVAIRPAC Comptroller and Flight Hour Program Manager have sought in the past to come up with a cost prediction model for air wings funded by COMNAVAIRPAC. The intention was to find a cost estimation method that can be applied to the Inter-Deployment Training Cycle (IDTC) and the Fuel, AVDLRs and Other Maintenance costs to better analyze and report projected versus actual flight hour (FH) performance. This, in turn, would help the execution of the Program Objectives Memorandum (POM), the budget and other resource reporting, including reconciliation to the OP-20 report from the Pentagon.
