Which form serves as a learner's permit by requesting driver training?

• A. AF Form 1800
• B. AF Form 171
• C. AF Form 2434
• D. DD Form 518

Answer: (B)

Starting driver training to obtain a learner’s permit hinges on submitting the official request form for that training. AF Form 171 is the document used to initiate driver training—the formal request that authorizes you to begin behind-the-wheel instruction and creates the official record for scheduling and eligibility. It captures the trainee’s information and supervisor approval, ensuring training staff know you’re authorized to learn and track progress. Other forms serve different administrative purposes and aren’t used to start driver training or issue a learner’s permit, so they wouldn’t fulfill this specific need.
