80T-105 Preface/Chapter 1 And Glossary HSM-50 Flashcards
Scope (105)
The responsibilities, requirements, and procedures contained herein apply to all persons involved w/ flight ops on all CVN or CV type ships
Purpose
This manual issues policy, guidance, and info for CV COs, air officer, air ops officer, air wing commanders, squadron COs, det OICs, and aircrew aboard CV and CVN type ships.
Advisory Control (105)
A form of ATC in which the controlling agency monitors radar and radio contact w/ a/c under its control and provides traffic advisories.
Traffic separation is the responsibility of the individual pilot w/ the assistance provided by the controlling agency
Air operations
The section of the ops department responsible for coordinating all matters pertaining to air ops including CATCC
Base Recovery Course
The ships magnetic heading during flight ops
BINGO
Order to proceed and land at the field specified (emergency fuel)
CATCC
Carrier Air Traffic Control Center: ATC for carrier. Responsible to air ops officer for safe, orderly, and expeditious separation of A/C w/in area of jurisdiction and providing ATC services to a/c during launch and recovery
Includes:
Departure
Marshall
Approach
Final
Carrier control area
50 NM radius
Surface to infinity
Control of CATCC (except for those under control of air officer during Case I/II)
CCA
Carrier controlled approach: an approach executed under control of CATCC (PAR for Carriers)
Carrier control zone
5 NM radius
Surface to 2500’ unless otherwise designated
Cognizance of air officer during VMC
CHARLIE
Signal to land.
Number suffix indicates time to delay (i.e. Charlie 5 Spot 5 means go to spot 5 in 5 minutes.
Concurrent ops
Sequential launch and recovery of fixed wing and rotary wing a/c in the same cycle
DELTA (signal)
A signal given to hold and conserve fuel
Departure control
Control position in CATCC responsible for departures and monitoring fuel requirements for a/c
EEAT
Emergency expected approach time: future time at which to conduct departure/arrival if lost comms
Emergency marshall
Location given by CATCC prior to launch w/ altitude and EEAT. At least 30 deg from primary marshall
EAT
Expected approach time: time at which a/c is cleared to come inbound. Approach at this time if no further instruction received
Father
Ship’s TACAN
Final Bearing
Magnetic bearing assigned by CATCC for final approach (extension of LA Centerline)
Final control
CATCC position responsible for control on final during CASE III until transfer to LSO or A/C reaches mins. Retains overall responsibility for separation
Fox Corpen
Ship’s true heading during flight ops
KILO report
A coded report from pilot indicating a/c mission readiness
Marshal control
A control position in CATCC responsible for providing control and arrival info to inbound a/c until handed off to another controlling agency
Mode III approach
A precision approach where the pilot is supplied position guidance from a final controller enabling a manually controlled precision approach to minimums
Monitor control
The monitoring of radar and radio channels for emergency transmissions
Nonradar control
Pilot flies according to published procedure or as prescribed by controlling agency. Traffic separation is provided by controlling agency using frequent pilot position reports and modified separation criteria.
Used only in emergency where radar is inop or unusable
Operational commitment
A situation of such compelling urgency that failure to grant a deviation from established explosive safety criteria will have a deleterious impact on the mission readiness of naval forces
Popeye
Pilot report indicating a/c flying in clouds or reduced vis
Positive control
Controlling agency has radar and radio contract w/ a/c and published approach/departure procedures are complied w/ or…
Where specific assignments regarding heading and altitude are issued by the controller.
Alt separation is provided by pilot maintaining assigned altitude, later and time separation is the responsibility of the ATC controller. Speed changes may be directed by ATC
Red light
The local time at which a helo will no longer be SAR capable and has approximately 30 minutes of flight time remaining
Starboard D
Right hand racetrack
Between 045 and 110 relative to BRC
300’ and below
3NM fix
Checkpoint on CCA on the final bearing 3NM from carrier through which all turboprop a/c and helos will pass in landing config
Case I wx mins
NLT 3000’/ 5NM
Case II wx min
NLT 1000’/ 5 NM
Case III wx mins
Less than 1000’ or less than 5 NM
