14 Glider Program Initiative Vision and Strategy Importance Guideposts Protect (preserve) Grow & sustain Maximize contribution Call for engagement at every level of the org Need to understand unique aspects

15 Organizational Development CAPR 70-1 ICL Check Pilot Examiner CAPF 5 Renewal in category Aircraft Information Files (AIFs) Airplane in Glider and Balloon with Clarified FRO/SFRO approval of GROL/runway & weather Development of new approaches for: Risk assessment Flight release Proof-of-concept Change in risk assessment post-release (amended) Addition of CAPF 99G Need to consider gusts in crosswinds Lateral separation Overwater flight PIC responsibilities with respect to WMIRS Change to compliance element (re: records)

16 Organization Development CAPM 60-1G ICL (Draft) CAPP 71-2 Glider Training CAPM 60-1G Glider Program Procedures CAPP 71-4 Glider Operations Procedures Attachments 1-6 deleted Mandates development and use of Risk Management Plans (RMPs) Clarifies supervisory requirements and responsibilities Operations Safety Scalable Warnings and Cautions Rig-/de-rig requirements Expediting recovery and launch Boots Initial flight training seniors Cadet solo flights

17 Glider Operations & Best Practices POC: Jack Buschmann

18 Glider RA&R Proof-of-concept One per PIC/CFI per day One per PIC/CFI per day Assess Glider Tow Release Glider Tow Record Glider Tow on erelease NOTE: Tow sorties should be risk assessed and release using existing powered-aircraft tools (electronic or paper). This data can be entered directly into WMIRS eflight Release or transferred into efr from paper after the fact.
