Question 1

Wings level Lost wingman procedure

Answer 1

The wingman turns away, using 15 degrees of bank for 15 seconds and informs number 1. After 15 seconds, number 2 resumes heading and proceeds on a separate clearance.

Question 2

Turning lost wingman procedure

Answer 2

When outside the turn, the lost wingman reverses the direction of turn, using 15 degrees of bank for 15 seconds, and informs
number 1. After 15 seconds, number 2 rolls out, continues straight ahead, and ensures positive separation before resuming the turn and obtaining a separate clearance.

When inside the turn, the lost wingman momentarily reduces power to ensure nose-tail separation and tells number 1 to roll out of the turn. Number 2 maintains AOB to ensure lateral separation, and then proceeds on a separate clearance. Number 1 may resume turning only when separation is ensured.

Question 3

Precision/Non precision final approach lost wingman procedure

Answer 3

The lost wingman momentarily turns away from number 1 to ensure separation and starts a climb to either the FAF or glide slope intercept altitude, as appropriate. While proceeding to the missed approach point, number 2 informs number 1 and obtains a separate clearance from approach control. Comply with the new clearance received or fly the published missed approach, as appropriate.

Question 4

Missed Approach Lost wingman procedure

Answer 4

The lost wingman momentarily turns away to ensure
clearance, informs number 1, and continues to the published missed approach while climbing 500 feet above the missed approach altitude. Number 2 obtains a separate clearance from approach control.

Question 5

Describe the Practice Lost Wingman Exercise

Answer 5

Number 1 directs practice lost wingman with a radio call, “Texan 2, go practice lost wingman.” Number 2 acknowledges “2,” but does not begin execution. This acknowledgement simply verifies that number 2 knows a practice lost wingman exercise has
been directed. When ready, number 2 executes the appropriate lost wingman procedures and makes the appropriate radio call (“Texan 1 roll out; Texan 2 lost wingman”). At a minimum, number 1 will respond with attitude, to include bank angle. Number 2 will acknowledge this
radio call “2.” Number 1 will monitor number 2 to ensure adequate separation is maintained and is primarily responsible for flight path deconfliction while number 2 is heads down during the procedure. After executing the appropriate lost wingman procedure, number 2 will
initiate the end of the lost wingman exercise by conveying “visual” with a radio call, “Texan 2, visual.” Number 1 will direct a rejoin or other position.

Question 6

When should you break out?

Answer 6

Hazard to the formation
In front of/under number one
Told to breakout
Loss of SA of position relative to one

Question 7

Blind radio call

Answer 7

Texan 2, blind, (altitude), (turning right 180, etc))

Question 8

Double Blind Scenario

Answer 8

Lead deconflicts altitude by 1000 feet minimum and coordinates a rejoin

Question 9

Fingertip Position

Answer 9

Slightly below, 10 ft wingtip spacing, along the extended 30 degree fingertip line, with 1’s exhaust stack bracketed by the pitot tube and the aft position light

Question 10

Route Position

Answer 10

2 ship widths to 500 feet, line abreast to no further aft than the 30 degree extended fingertip line (strive for LAB to 10 degrees aft), stack level with 1’s helmet on the horizon

Question 11

Echelon turn positioning

Answer 11

One wingspan spacing between aircraft, half of the CFS door visible, fuselage on horizon

Roll controls stack, power controls line, pull controls spacing
