Scientific and educational training school of aircraft students: historical aspects and modern tasks

The article examines certain historical aspects of the development of the scientific and educational school for training aviation navigators. The role of the departments of the school in the methodological and methodological training of the teaching staff is outlined. From the standpoint of technological structures, the ways of development of the content of flight work of the navigator are investigated. The key idea of the article: modern navigation and aerobatic systems and combat use complexes are developing as integrated systems for monitoring the surrounding space, but despite all their complexity, there will be errors that, according to the functional and official concept, the navigator of the aircraft should know, understand and be able to correct. Accordingly, in the navigators training in terms of digitization and computerization increases the value of the special operating technical education based on general engineering education and logical-information culture with a critical mindset.
