Q

Nonessential Flights

A

The use of aircraft for nonessential flights SHALL not be authorized. Any flight open to misinterpretation by the public SHALL be avoided. Examples of flights that are considered nonessential are as follows:

  1. Flights of a routine business nature for which commercial or other military transportation could be more economically substituted
  2. Flights for any officer or group of officers, the sole purpose of which is the convenience and/or prestige of the officers concerned and not the performance of official duties or accomplishment of bona fide training
  3. Repeated flights to the hometown area of flight personnel concerned
  4. Flights coinciding with major sports events or civic celebrations

16
Q

When can you fly through a WW

A

1.Storm development has not progressed as forecast. Should include verification by a DoD forecaster or Flight Service Station. In any case: VFR filing permitted if existing and forecast wx for the planned route permits such flights; IFR flight may be permitted if aircraft radar is installed and operative, thus permitting detection and avoidance of isolated thunderstorms; IFR flight is permissible in controlled airspace if VMC can be maintained, thus enabling a/c to detect and avoid isolated thunderstorms
2. Performance characteristics of the aircraft permit an en route flight altitude above existing or developing severe storms
NOTE: it is not the intent to restrict flights w/i areas encompassed by or adjacent to a WW area unless storms have actually developed as forecast

17
Q

Alternate Airfield

A

An alt. airfield is required when the wx at the destination is forecast to be less than 3000-3 during the period +/- 1 hour of ETA.

NOTE: if an alternate airfield is required, it SHALL have a published approach compatible with installed operable aircraft navigation equipment that can be flown without the use of two-way radio communication whenever either one of the following condition is met:

  1. The destination lacks the above described approach
  2. The forecasted wx at the alternate is below 3000-3 during +/- 1 hour ETA
18
Q

Destination Weather ETA plus and minus 1 hour: 0-0 up to but not including published mins

A

Alternate Weather: 3000-3

19
Q

Destination Weather ETA plus and minus 1 hour: Published mins up to but not including 3000-3 (Helicopter absolute mins 200-1/4)

A

Non Precision: Published Mins plus 300-1

Precision: Published mins plus 200-1/2

20
Q

Destination Weather ETA plus and minus 1 hour: 3000-3 or better

A

No alternate required

21
Q

Minimum fuel requirements general

A

All aircraft SHALL carry sufficient usable fuel, considering all meteorological factors and mission requirements

22
Q

Minimum fuel requirements if alternate is not required

A

Fuel to fly from T/O to destination airfield, plus a reserve of 10% of planned fuel requirements

23
Q

Minimum fuel requirements if alternate is required

A

Fuel to fly from T/O to the approach fix serving destination and thence to an alternate airfield, plus a reserve of 10% of planned fuel requirements

24
Q

Minimum fuel requirements “In no case”…

A

In no case shall the planned fuel reserve after final landing at destination or alternate airfield, if one is required, be less than that needed for 20 minutes of flight, computed as computed fuel consumption based on operation at planned flight altitude

25
Q

Minimum fuel requirements: Delays

A

Any known or expected traffic delays SHALL be considered time en route when computing fuel reserves. If route or altitude assigned by ATC causes or will cause planned fuel reserves to be inadequate, the pilot shall inform ATC of the circumstances, and, if unable to obtain a satisfactory altitude or routing, alter destination accordingly

26
Q

Takeoff Minimums - Special Instrument Rating

A

no t/o ceilings or visibility minimums apply. T/O shall depend on the judgment of the pilot and urgency of flights
NOTE: Only an aircraft commander with a special instrument rating, who is also on the flight controls, is authorized to make departures from an airfield when weather conditions are below minimum

27
Q

Takeoff Minimums - Standard Instrument Rating

A

Published minimums for the available non-precision approach, but not less than 300-1. When a precision approach compatible with installed and operable aircraft equipment is available, T/O is authorized provided the weather is at least equal to the precision approach minimums for the landing runway in use, but in no case when the weather is less than 200-1/4 or 2400 runway visual range.

28
Q

Approach Criteria for Multipiloted Aircraft

A

When reported wx is at or below published landing mins for the approach to be conducted, an approach shall not be commenced in multipiloted aircraft unless the aircraft has the capability to proceed to a suitable alternate in the event of a missed approach

29
Q

Criteria for Continuing Instrument Approaches to a landing

A

Pilots shall not descend below the prescribed MDA or continue an approach below the DH unless they have the rwy environment in sight and in their judgment a safe landing can be executed, either straight-in or from a circling approach, whichever is specified in their clearance

30
Q

Criteria for continuing approach - Precision Approach

A

A missed approach SHALL be executed immediately upon reaching the decision height unless the rwy environment is in sight and a safe landing can be made. On precision radar approaches, the pilot may expect control instructions until over landing threshold; course and glidepath info given after DH SHALL be considered advisory in nature

31
Q

Criteria for continuing approach - Non-Precision Approach

A

A missed approach shall be executed immediately upon reaching the missed approach point if visual reference is not established and/or a landing cannot be accomplished. If visual reference is lost while circling to land from a published instrument approach, the missed approach specified for that particular procedure must be followed. To become established on the prescribed missed approach course, the pilot should make an initial climbing turn toward the runway then maneuver in the shortest direction to become established on the missed approach course

32
Q

Crew Rest for Flight Crews and Flight Support Personnel

A
  1. Includes free time for meals, transportation, rest and SHALL include an opportunity for 8 hrs of uninterrupted sleep for every 24 hr period.
  2. SHALL not be scheduled for continuous watch, duty, alert, and/or flight duty (required awake) in excess of 18 hrs. However, if it becomes operationally necessary to exceed 18 hours, 15 hours of continuous off-duty time SHALL be provided prior to scheduling the member for any duties
  3. Sailor and crew rest can be reduced to less than 12 hrs in order to maintain a 24-hr work/rest schedule, but a shortened Sailor or crew rest period SHALL always include an opportunity for 8 hours uninterrupted sleep
33
Q

NOTE for crew rest (performance efficiency)

A

If continuous awake duty time exceeds 16 hours, performance efficiency begins to drop. After 18 hours, performance efficiency rapidly declines to 75% effectiveness or less. The loss of effectiveness is manifested by lapses in attention, slower reaction time, slowed information processing, decreased vigilance, and increased error frequency. Accident rates for just about every type of human activity increase after 18 hours of wakefulness, particularly during the night “circadian trough” when sleep would normally occur

34
Q

Embarkation of Passengers Rule #1 (Transporting DoD personnel, etc.)

A
  1. No person SHALL be enplaned as a passenger nor SHALL any cargo be embarked on a naval aircraft unless authorization has been granted by competent authority in accordance with applicable directives. Sealift Command personnel, DoD civilian employees, federal agency tech reps, and contractors may be authorized COD/VOD transportation with approval by COMPETENT AUTHORITY in cases of official business. Reporting custodians for helo units may authorize personnel to be embarked as pax on their aircraft. May be delegated to a designated Det OIC when deployed or embarked. No person SHALL be carried in a taxiing a/c as a pax unless such person is authorized to fly in it or has been authorized by competent authority to be embarked therein
35
Q

Embarkation of Pax Rule #2 (Transporting civilian guests and other designated personnel not otherwise qualified for gov air transportation)

A

CNATRA or COMPACFLT (Or any other major COM…) may authorize COD/VOD transportation for civilian guests and other designated personnel not otherwise qualified for gov air transportation. Authority may be delegated to numbered fleet commanders and type commanders and is granted for the specific purpose of facilitating embarkation/debarkation of these selected individuals when ships are at sea. It SHALL not be extended to include flights of convenience for the individual(s) concerned. Due consideration SHALL be given to the age and physiological characteristics of the individuals, particularly when catapult landings/arrested landings are involved

36
Q

Embarkation of Pax Rule #4 (Helo/tiltrotor Pax at night)

A

Helo and Tiltrotor pax overwater flights at night are authorized subject to the following restrictions:

  1. Ship launches and recoveries SHALL be made during daylight hours. Constraint may be waived by the Strike Group Commander, Amphibious Squadron commander, MAGTF commander or OTC in cases of OPERATIONAL NECESSITY
  2. In cases of MEDEVAC, a qualified medical attendant who is current in approved water survival training (non-aircrew underwater emergency egress as a minimum training requirement), and has been properly briefed on emergency egress procedures for that a/c, may be transferred at night with approval from ship’s CO
  3. This does not preclude troop movement in support of amphibious exercises, VBSS level III ops, or SPECOPS training and operational missions.
37
Q

Embarkation of Pax Rule #5 (SAR, MEDEVAC, or disaster relief mission)

A

PIC/Mission commanders of a naval aircraft (while absent from home unit) may authorize air transportation for personnel and/or equipment not otherwise qualified for Gov air transport (civilian physicians, paramedics, sheriffs, park rangers, med equipment) when required for the successful prosecution of a SAR, MEDEVAC, or disaster relief mission. SHALL only be exercised when all practical means of obtaining authorization from competent authority in accordance with applicable directives have proven unsuccessful or unavailable. Appropriate authority SHALL be notified of such air transportation as soon as practicable
