preflight planning familiar with
Delays, anticipated traffic
Reports, wx
Alternatives if flight can’t be completed
Fuel req
Tfrs
Notams
Terminal inst procedures
also do a risk assessment
what civilian fields can we operate at
anything in dod enroute supp or appropriate FAA pubs
when can we operate at civilian fields
contribute to mission accomplishment
add value to training
otherwise in interest to government and tax payer
land at other than airfields
military requirement exist
adequate safeguards for landing and takeoff without hazard to people or property
no legal objections
co can waive all for SAR
closed tower
co and base co agree
separate agreement for no crash crew
closed airfields
only in event of emergency
PIC ensure for flight plans
1properly authorized
2adequate planning data available
3in accordance with fuel and wx requirements
4each pilot in formation has wx brief
5all possess valid inst rating for portions of flight required
6pax briefed and manifested
7proper weight and balance
8safe and orderly conduct of flight
wx criteria for filing
wx at point of departure at time of clearance
existing and forecast wx along route
destination and alt +- 1 hour of ETA
when is an alternate required
when wx at destination is less than 3000/3 within an hour of arrival
alternate wx requirement when destination if 0-0 up to but not including published mins
3000/3 or better
alternate wx requirement when wx at destination is published mins but not 3000/3
npa published plus 300-1
pa published plus 200-1/2
note for alternate selection and use of PAR/ASR wx mins
if single piloted or a/c with only one working radio, can’t use as the basis for alternate selection
can we use rnav approaches for both destination and alternate planning
yes since we meet TSO-C146 requirements (aka have WAAS)
does CNAF let us use LPV mins as precision approaches for preflight planning purposes
yes but the faa doesn’t
when does the alternate need to have an approach compatible with installed a/c equipment that can be flown without radio
- when the destination doesn’t have a published approach that can be flown without the use of 2 way radio with our equipment
- forecast wx at alternate is less than 3000/3 within one hour of ETA
when can we fly through WW
operational necessity or has not progressed as forecast and installation commander or wing commander determines we’re good and we can stay vmc
fuel requirement if no alternate
fuel from takeoff to destination airfield plus 10% reserve of planned fuel requirements
fuel requirement if alternate required
fly from takeoff to approach fix of destination and then to alternate airfield, plus a reserve of 10% of planned requirements
no matter what planned fuel reserve after final landing or alternate
20 minutes of flight at planned altitude
equipment for IMC flight
- pitot heat and power for flight instruments
- airspeed indicator
- altimeter
- turn and slip indicator
- clock with hour min sec sweep hand or digital
- attitude indicator
- mag compass with current calibration card
- heading indicator
- VSI
- deicing equip if flying in icing
- nav lights
aka 6 pack, pitot heat, de ice, nav lights, and compass
take off mins
published mins but not less than 300-1 for a npa or 200-1/2(2400rvr) for pa
approach criteria for multipiloted a/c
if reported wx at or below published landing mins, approach shall not be commenced in multi piloted aircraft unless a/c has capability of going to alternate
approach criteria for single piloted a/c
shall not be commenced if wx reported below published mins
absolute mins for single piloted helo
200-1/4(1200)
assumes we are 90 or less on final
4 reasons we may be called to go missed on radar approach
safe limits/radical aircraft deviations
position or id of a/c in doubt
radar contact lost or malf radar
field conditions unsafe/traffic
when do we have to go missed on radar approach
only for unsafe field conditions/traffic
when can we do practice approaches to places below mins
can’t be filed destination or alternate
and destination/alt must meet filing criteria
non contract fuel purchase
only when
mission requirements dictate
flight terminated as part of an emergency
flight terminated at alternate
inst mins
within 6 months: 6 hours 12 approaches 6 of which shall be precision 6 non precision
within 12 months: 12 hours 18 approaches 12 precision 6 non precision
sim can meet half requirements
who logs actual instrument time
both pilots in actual instrument conditions
who logs sim inst time
only pilot manipulating controls
