Passenger Requirements (con’t)
CAP has two exemptions granted by the FAA for flying non-CAP passengers. This exemption to 14 CFR Parts and allows our pilots to obtain reimbursement as a private pilot and provides a tool for CAP to comply with specific FAA requirements regarding transportation flights. The exemption is located on the National Stan/Eval/Flight Ops web page and should be consulted prior to flying non-CAP passengers to ensure any special requirements and restrictions are adhered to. CAP members will wear an appropriate CAP uniform and carry proof of CAP membership. Only occupants of CAP gliders and crew members requested not to wear uniforms by the customer of a CD Mission are exempt from the CAP uniform requirement.

Aircraft Requirements
Before utilizing a member-owned/furnished aircraft for AFAMs the aircraft be inspected by CAP-USAF LR personnel utilizing the CAPF 71. Inspections must be conducted annually and are valid for one year. A facsimile of the aircraft airworthiness certificate must also be provided to the CAP-USAF LR when the aircraft is submitted for inspection. The aircraft owner must annually sign a hold harmless agreement (HHA) waiving any claims for damage to the aircraft arising from the use of the aircraft. CAP-USAF LRs review the current HHA and aircraft inspection paperwork prior to approving the use of member-owned/furnished aircraft for each AFAM use. NOTE: FECA and FTCA coverage are provided to CAP members executing properly released AFAMs in member owned / furnished aircraft, but the HHA excludes reimbursement for damage or loss of member-owned/furnished aircraft.

Grounding and Mishaps Grounding means a member cannot act as PIC, crewmember, or passenger in CAP aircraft. In the case of grounding away from home base, the member may be permitted to return to home base as a passenger in a CAP aircraft. Any commander in the chain of command (from squadron to National Commander) of a CAP member, or an IC during a supervised mission, may ground that member for cause CAP members may be assessed some or all of the damages due to negligent operation or movement of CAP corporate aircraft. Guidance for commanders to use in assessing members for damage may be found in CAPR From 101T-MS Classroom training covering the applicable material outlined below is required prior to the issuance of a 101T for the Observer Specialty Visual Search Patterns and Procedures Electronic Search Patterns and Procedures Chart Reading / CAP Grid System Search Coverage Navigation and Position Determination Air Crew Coordination Weather High Altitude and Terrain Considerations Coordination with Ground Teams Flightline Operations Communications Procedures Flight Plans and Mission Forms Reimbursement Procedures State/Local Agreements Survival and First Aid Procedures Safety Transport Mission Procedures Scanning Techniques and Sighting Characteristics

ES Training & Missions Mission Commitment Policies
Upon locating survivors, all personnel must assume that immediate assistance is necessary and act accordingly. The condition of survivors cannot be determined accurately through aerial observation alone. Only qualified CAP members, qualified members of other agencies with which CAP has an approved MOU, and CAP mission trainees under the supervision of a qualified person may participate in CAP operational missions. There will be at a minimum a 1-to-3 ratio of supervisors to trainees when trainees are utilized. Use of qualified CAP cadets is encouraged as much as possible on appropriate missions. Discuss restrictions.

22
ES Training & Missions Assistance to Law Enforcement Officials
May provide passive assistance to law enforcement officers and agencies. CAP members may not be deputized nor may they take an active part in arrest or detention activities and have no authority to restrict persons by means of force, actual or implied. CAP assistance to law enforcement agencies that may lead to criminal prosecution is restricted to patrol, reconnaissance, and reporting only. Requests for such assistance, unless of an emergency nature, must be approved in advance by the wing and region commanders and coordinated with NHQ CAP/DO. Assistance may also be a by-product of the normal conduct of a CAP mission. In some instances, such as during an airborne search, CAP members may observe suspicious activities and as concerned citizens, should report those observations to proper authorities. When requested by the proper law enforcement authority, CAP members may provide crash site surveillance and/or crowd control duties during an emergency/disaster situation. When on such a mission, the senior CAP member present will ensure the above restrictions are understood and will contact the nearest law enforcement officer if assistance is required.

ES Training & Missions Liability Protection
CAP members acting within the scope of their duties on CAP operational missions will be afforded liability protection by the US Government under the FTCA while serving on AFAMs (including 911T missions) or by CAP's liability insurance policies (within limits) while on other CAP corporate missions (refer to CAPR 900-5, The CAP Insurance/Benefits Program). CAP members 18 years of age and older are eligible for FECA benefits if injured or killed while serving on an AFAM (including 911T missions). Travel to and from such mission activity is also covered. Some states provide state worker’s compensation benefits for CAP members injured or killed while serving on state operational missions. For specifics consult the wing legal officer and CAPR IMPORTANT to meet all CAP regulations while on missions (e.g., credentials and uniform), or you may be ruled ineligible From 101T-MS Classroom training covering the applicable material outlined below is required prior to the issuance of a 101T for the Observer Specialty Visual Search Patterns and Procedures Electronic Search Patterns and Procedures Chart Reading / CAP Grid System Search Coverage Navigation and Position Determination Air Crew Coordination Weather High Altitude and Terrain Considerations Coordination with Ground Teams Flightline Operations Communications Procedures Flight Plans and Mission Forms Reimbursement Procedures State/Local Agreements Survival and First Aid Procedures Safety Transport Mission Procedures Scanning Techniques and Sighting Characteristics
24
ES Training & Missions Entry on or Seizure of Private Property During Missions As a general rule, CAP members are subject to the well-known rules that prohibit trespass on or seizure of private property. While entry upon private property may be justified if such an act is for the purpose of saving life, every effort should be made to obtain the controlling agency's approval and property owner's consent. Entry and activities on private property during training missions will always be arranged in advance with the owner Under no circumstances may a CAP member seize property or engage in searches beyond the exceptions stated above From 101T-MS Classroom training covering the applicable material outlined below is required prior to the issuance of a 101T for the Observer Specialty Visual Search Patterns and Procedures Electronic Search Patterns and Procedures Chart Reading / CAP Grid System Search Coverage Navigation and Position Determination Air Crew Coordination Weather High Altitude and Terrain Considerations Coordination with Ground Teams Flightline Operations Communications Procedures Flight Plans and Mission Forms Reimbursement Procedures State/Local Agreements Survival and First Aid Procedures Safety Transport Mission Procedures Scanning Techniques and Sighting Characteristics
25
ES Training & Missions Distress Beacons
Distress beacons are frequently tracked to a locked vehicle, aircraft, or building. CAP mission personnel should contact the controlling agency (e.g., AFRCC) for further instructions. If entry is required the owner/operator or local law enforcement officials will make it. CAP members will not enter private property and should not do anything that could cause harm or damage to the distress beacon or aircraft/boat. If the beacon is not readily silenced contact the IC. The IC should contact the controlling agency and plan to withdraw.

ES Training & Missions First Aid and Emergency Medical Care
CAP is not an emergency medical care or paramedic organization and should not advertise itself as such. CAP will not be the primary provider of medical support on missions or training events though qualified personnel can be used to support such activities. The only type of medical aid that should be administered by CAP personnel or by any other person at CAP's request is reasonable first aid deemed necessary to save a life or prevent human suffering and executed by a person qualified to attempt such medical care within their skill level.

ES Training & Missions CAP flight crews and ground teams will make a conscientious effort to avoid or reduce fatigue by: Periodic separation from duty station Periodic light refreshments of moderate amounts of hot foods, soup, fruit juice, etc. Avoidance of excessive smoking Periodic sleep prior to sorties Refraining from alcohol within 24 hours of reporting for the mission From 101T-MS Classroom training covering the applicable material outlined below is required prior to the issuance of a 101T for the Observer Specialty Visual Search Patterns and Procedures Electronic Search Patterns and Procedures Chart Reading / CAP Grid System Search Coverage Navigation and Position Determination Air Crew Coordination Weather High Altitude and Terrain Considerations Coordination with Ground Teams Flightline Operations Communications Procedures Flight Plans and Mission Forms Reimbursement Procedures State/Local Agreements Survival and First Aid Procedures Safety Transport Mission Procedures Scanning Techniques and Sighting Characteristics
28
ES Training & Missions Security
CAP does support sensitive missions regularly, and some mission results support classified missions and customer needs. Members need to be familiar with the classification definitions and their associated access and requirements when assigned these missions. Guidance for these programs is available on the NHQ CAP/DOS website. OPSEC is the basis for the protection of information that regardless of the designation, the loss or compromise of sensitive information could pose a threat to the operations or missions of the agency designating the information to be sensitive. All CAP members must complete OPSEC Awareness Training and sign the non-disclosure agreement in order to become or remain emergency services qualified.

29
ES Training & Missions Only personnel holding a valid CAPF 101 (or authorized on equivalent computer rosters) containing the applicable specialty ratings may be assigned to perform duties on CAP operational missions. Properly documented individuals in training for a specialty rating may only perform mission duties under the supervision of fully qualified personnel. Personnel are authorized to train for the specialty rating qualifications by their Unit CC (including approved emergency services school directors) Training to qualify in a specialty is expected to be completed within 2 years. Members not completing training requirements within two years should expect to re-demonstrate expired portions of their training.

31
ES Training & Missions All training must be certified as complete by a qualified evaluator, and members cannot certify their own training Trainees can still participate in training or actual missions as allowed on their CAPF 101 under qualified supervisors. If the supervisor is not a qualified evaluator, the trainee will not receive credit for training towards qualification. For each specialty rating, SQTRs have been developed to train and qualify members in stages. The most current versions of the task guides for all specialties are found at the NHQ CAP/DOS website.

32
ES Training & Missions Prerequisites must be completed prior to initiating training requirements. Once trainees have met the Prerequisites, they will be required to complete Familiarization and Preparatory training for the specialty before serving in that position on actual or training missions under supervision. Familiarization and Preparatory training is the minimum set of tasks that the member must master prior to acting as a supervised trainee on practice or actual missions. These tasks represent those skills that will keep the member safe and allow the member to function under supervision without jeopardizing the mission. This requirement avoids placing personnel not ready to perform certain jobs or those who work for them at risk.

33
ES Training & Missions Once Familiarization and Preparatory training is completed, trainees must complete Advanced Training and participate satisfactorily in two missions before a CAPF 101 is approved and a member is considered “Qualified.” Advanced Training covers the remainder of the tasks required for specialty qualification. On actual missions, it is expected that these tasks could be accomplished by the trainee's supervisor or other fully trained members if they became critical. Because of this, trainees are allowed to learn these "on the job.“ These two “missions” do not have to be on different mission numbers, be Air Force assigned or approved, or be completed after advanced training. These sorties must be complete sorties and/or operating periods where the member participates in all aspects of their assigned mission specialty. It is possible to participate in more than one specialty on a given mission or day.

CAPR 60-5 Critical Incident Stress Management
40
Critical Incident Stress
A comprehensive, integrated, multi-component crisis intervention system CISM is solidly based in crisis intervention theory and educational intervention theory Designed to mitigate the psychological impact of a traumatic event (e.g., plane crash, natural disaster, serious incident or accident). It also serves as an early identification mechanism for individuals who may require professional mental health follow-up subsequent to a traumatic event. No one in emergency services is immune to critical incident stress, regardless of past experiences or years of service. CISM takes care of CAP members (primarily) and support personnel from other agencies (secondarily) who experience a potentially traumatizing event serving at a mission site or other CAP ES activity.

CAPR 62-1 CAP Safety Responsibilities and Procedures
43
Safety Responsibilities
The overarching goal of any safety program is to mitigate risks, control hazards and prevent mishaps. The primary goal of the CAP Safety Program is to protect both the membership and its assets in the performance of their volunteer duties. All levels of command seek to instill a culture of safety that guides the planning and execution of every CAP activity. CAP leadership and its safety program managers shall use both education and training to promote the culture of safety within the Civil Air Patrol CAP’s Culture of Safety is a combination of both education and training From 101T-MS Classroom training covering the applicable material outlined below is required prior to the issuance of a 101T for the Observer Specialty Visual Search Patterns and Procedures Electronic Search Patterns and Procedures Chart Reading / CAP Grid System Search Coverage Navigation and Position Determination Air Crew Coordination Weather High Altitude and Terrain Considerations Coordination with Ground Teams Flightline Operations Communications Procedures Flight Plans and Mission Forms Reimbursement Procedures State/Local Agreements Survival and First Aid Procedures Safety Transport Mission Procedures Scanning Techniques and Sighting Characteristics

Safety Education Operational Risk Management (ORM) is a logic-based, common sense methodology to making calculated decisions on human, material and environmental factors associated with any type of activity. It is a methodical, six-step process to manage inherent or induced risk. CAP commanders, activity directors, safety directors, and/or safety officers, shall reference the list of Operational Risk Management analyses for CAP activities available on the National CAP Safety web page CAP leaders are required to use ORM forms to quantify and mitigate risk during CAP activities in conjunction with mandatory, daily Operational Risk Safety Briefings. Additionally, new participants that arrive throughout an activity or sub-activity must receive a mandatory operational risk safety briefing pertaining to their roles and responsibilities before participating.

Mishap Reporting It is extremely important to report all mishaps. There are lessons to be learned from each mishap which help identify trends and some mishaps, that may first appear to be minor, are found to be more severe upon further discovery. For this reason, all mishaps must be reported using the mishap management portion of the eServices Safety Management System.

Storage and Tie-Down Storage and Tie-Down:
Tie-Down Anchors. There are many methods of anchoring tie-downs. Satisfactory tie-down anchors may be constructed as shown at Attachment 3. Variations may be necessary when local conditions dictate. Tie-Down Ropes. Tie-down ropes with tensile strength of 3,000 pounds or greater shall be used. Nylon or Dacron tie-down ropes are recommended. When specified tie-downs are not available, crew members shall use ropes/straps appropriate for anticipated environmental conditions. Refer to Attachment 3 for rope specifications. Tie-Down Chains. Chains shall not be used directly from aircraft mooring points to an anchor point because of excessive impact loads on wing spars. When chain tie-downs are used, they shall be attached to wire rope anchors as depicted in Attachment 3. Wire rope anchors are constructed of two continuous lengths of parallel wire rope passed through the anchor points. The tie-down chains shall be attached to the wire rope with round pin galvanized anchor shackles. This allows the chains to float along the wire rope to reduce impact loads. Chain links used for tie-down must be at least 5/16-inch steel and a proof load of 2,720 pounds and breaking load of 5,440 pounds. All fittings must be equally as strong and chains should be secured without slack. Spoilers. In high wind areas, the use of sandbags, or spoiler boards as described in FAA advisory circular 20-35C, are recommended.
