The trainee flight director can produce the first draft of the master plan,
using the change requests that were submitted, adding in any dependencies
that are missing, and tagging those additions. The flight director then goes
over the plan with the trainee, adds or subtracts dependencies, and reorganizes
the tasks and personnel assignments as appropriate, explaining why. Alternatively,
the flight director can create the first draft along with the trainee,
explaining the process while doing so. The trainee flight director can also help
out during the maintenance window, time permitting, by coordinating with
the flight director to track status of certain projects and suggesting reallocation
of resources where appropriate. The trainee can also help out before the
downtime by discussing projects with some of the SAs if the flight director
has questions about the project and by ensuring that the prerequisites listed
in the change proposal are met in advance of the maintenance window
