Chief Warrant Officer 2 Travis Vanlengen, an Iowa Army National Guard UH-60M instructor pilot with Company C, 2nd Brigade, 147th Aviation Battalion, of Boone, Iowa, and a certified Black Hawk Aircrew Trainer instructor-operator, monitors a pilot’s flight at the Camp Dodge Joint Maneuver Training Center, in Johnston, Iowa. The instructor-operator’s screens allow him to see the pilot inside the aircraft, as well as watch their flight path on a map, while controlling stress factors, such as inclement weather, enemy fire and mechanical failures. Vanlengen said these safety hazards are possible, both in peacetime and at war, and can be fatal without the proper training. (U.S. Army National Guard photo by Sgt. Christie R. Smith)
