Q

AFTO Forms 781: Symbols

A

Red X: a/c is unsafe or unserviceable, can’t be flown until red X is remedied, “corrected and inspected”
Red dash: overdue inspection, can be overflown “dashing past the due date”
Red slash: minor maintenance required, can be flown if mx doesn’t impact mission “slashes make Ms”
Forms 781 will often include an MFR approving overdue inspections or waiting on parts

Q

Ground ops: What to look for during the walk around?

A

Generally, if it’s on the a/c and you can look at it, you should. Inspect for general condition and ability to perform task- lights shouldn’t be cracked, tires shouldn’t be too worn, no broken lines or dripping liquids

Q

Taxi: Who has right of way?

A

CAFBI 13-1 2.1.1.3. Aircraft taxiing for departure have priority over aircraft returning to the parking area.

Additionally, T-38s and T-1s have priority over T-6s because they burn fuel faster

Q

Pattern procedures: Hot/Cold side operations

A

5.3.6.3.3. (Added) Initial TO. Initial Takeoffs will be made on the hot side. Per AETCI 11-204, you cannot takeoff on the cold side with an aircraft on the hot side of the runway.
5.3.6.3.4. (Added) Touch and Go’s. Touch and Go’s will be made on the hot side. If there is a touch and go in front of you, they should be airborne before you touch down. If there is a full stop on the hot side in front of you, go around if they do not transition to the cold side and are not at least 3,000 feet down before you touch down. Per AETCI 11-204, you cannot do a touch and go on the cold side behind a full stop on the hot side.
5.3.6.3.5. (Added) Full Stop. Full Stops will be made on the cold side. If the cold side is already occupied by a previous full stop, then land on the hot side with 3,000 feet separation. Aircrews are then expected to transition to the cold side at a safe airspeed; it is not necessary to wait until
3,000 feet down to transition.
