Detailed guidance on management and reporting of flight orders for enlisted personnel is contained in which publications?

• A. Joint Service Publication 100 and Nav Manual 123
• B. Air Force Manual 10-402 and Navy Manual 5000
• C. Enlisted Aviation Orders Manual 8000
• D. Personnel Manual M1000.6 and Comdtinst M7220.39

Answer: (D)

Managing flight orders for enlisted personnel requires following standardized publication guidance that covers how these orders are issued, tracked, and reported. The Personnel Manual M1000.6 provides the overall framework for enlisted personnel administration, including how orders are generated, recorded, and used for pay, promotions, and status tracking. The Marine Corps Commandant Instruction M7220.39 adds the specific procedures for flight orders within aviation units—how flight orders are prepared, approved, distributed, and reported, and how flight time and currency are documented for enlisted aircrews. Used together, these two publications give the complete, authoritative procedures for handling flight orders for enlisted personnel. The other options do not reflect standard references for this topic.
