56
Q

What is anticipated blind?

A

When terrain/environmental factors cause a loss of visual cues for a short duration or when visual cues are lost when using a pre-coordinated non-visual station keeping that provides sufficient situational awareness to ensure deconfliction

57
Q

What is unanticipated blind?

A

Visual cues required for formation separation no longer provide sufficient distance, aspect, or closure rate cues to ensure deconfliction. Could also occur when non-visual methods do not provide sufficient situational awareness to ensure positive deconfliction.
