If modification to ATCF classifications is required, the Commanding Officer shall submit a request to whom?

ATCF classifications are governed through a centralized approval channel, so changes must be routed to the designated office within the Chief of Naval Operations staff that handles aviation training and standards. The specific office code N980A, within NAATSEA, is the official authority for ATCF classification modifications. Submitting to this office ensures formal review, proper governance, and alignment with policy across commands. A direct submission to the CNO without going through the N980A/NAATSEA process would bypass the established approval pathway, and routing to an Operational Commander isn’t appropriate for policy or classification changes.
