1 MCAS CHERRY POINT Basic Airfield Vehicle Operator Course (AVOC)

2 REFERENCES 1) FAA Handbook (ATC) 2) NAVAIR 00-80T-114 (ATC NATOPS) 3) MCO (Safety Program) 4) AirStaO P (AOM) 5) ATCFacO P (Facility Manual) 6) AirStaO B (FOD)

3 PURPOSE The purpose of the Basic Airfield Vehicle Operator Course (AVOC) is to ensure all individuals who operate vehicles and support equipment are properly trained so they can safely communicate and operate on MCAS Cherry Point s Airfield.

4 Airfield Tour Licensing Procedures Classroom Written Exam (80% or better) Airfield Operations Issues ADL

5 Control Tower Facility that uses air/ground communications, visual signals and other devices to provide ATC services to aircraft and vehicles operating on or in the vicinity of the airfield

6 Non-movement Non-Movement Area- Areas on an airfield not under the control of ATC. (aircraft parking ramps) Vigilance is required as to not run into parked aircraft, aircraft engine starts, etc.

7 Movement Area Runways, taxiways and other areas of an airport which are utilized for aircraft operations. Approval for entry onto the movement area must be obtained from the control tower. Airfield vehicle operators license required. Never operate any vehicle on the airfield movement areas without establishing two way communications with the control tower.

8 Operating on Movement Areas Only operate in areas authorized by the Control Tower. Anytime you become disoriented, hold your position and ask for guidance from the Tower. Give way to all emergency vehicles responding to an emergency.

9 Maintain radio discipline at all times. After receiving authorization, look both ways before crossing a runway. Airport speed limit is 20 MPH. 5 MPH when towing an aircraft or within parking ramps/fuel pits EXPEDITE movement on runway areas. While operating on the airfield, operate hazards and flashing lights. During the hours of darkness, be careful to operate headlights so not to blind pilots.

10 Other Than Airport Vehicles All vehicles not regularly used on the airfield shall carry a flag 3 feet square attached to a staff and flying above the vehicle or be equipped with an amber rotating beacon whenever operations on aircraft operating areas are necessary. Flags shall consist of a checkered pattern of international orange and white squares not less than 1 foot on each side.

11 Runways Runway- A defined rectangular area where aircraft operations are conducted (takeoffs and landings). Duty Runway- The runway in use by ATC. Runway markings are WHITE. Runway lights are WHITE.

12 Runway

13 Airfield Incursions Airfield incursions- Vehicle proceeds onto a movement area without clearance from the Tower. Severe ATC Hazard. Less than applicable separation between a/c and vehicles. Routine ATC Hazard. Encroachment onto movement area without approval. An Operational Discrepancy Report (ODR) is written and the driver may lose drivers license permanently, or receive remedial AVOC instruction.

14 AV- 8 VSTOL Pads Concrete Pad used for AV-8 vertical takeoffs and landings.

15 Taxiways Taxiway- Paved area for aircraft movement between the runway and parking area. Taxiway markings are YELLOW. Taxiway lights are BLUE.

41 Communications Radios can be checked out for a 10 hour period from Airfield Base Operations. The ATC Ground Controller is responsible for all movement of vehicles on the airfield movement areas. Make requests as simple and direct as possible. The number of vehicles simultaneously operating on the airfield can cause the FM frequency to be congested. In addition, the controllers are not just talking to vehicles, they are responsible for the entire ground movement. If the tower doesn t answer you immediately, they may be talking to aircraft or issuing clearances on a different frequency.

42 Operating Terms Acknowledge Let me know you have received and understand this message. Correction An error has been made in the transmission and the correct version follows. Go ahead State your request Hold Stop where you are. Hold short of - Proceed to, but hold short of a specific point. Proceed You are authorized to begin or continue moving.

43 Read back Repeat my message back to me. Roger I have received all of your last transmission. Unable Operation cannot be authorized. Wilco I have received your message, understand it, and will comply. Without Delay - Instruction from ATC to expedite the movement of an aircraft or vehicle. Expedite - Term used by ATC when prompt compliance is required to avoid the development of an imminent situation.

44 HOLD SHORT INSTRUCTIONS Vehicle operators required to read back hold short instructions VERBATIM. Vehicle operators are required to hold short in the location they were instructed to. ATC is required to prompt for read back if not received, or if read back is incorrect. Airfield vehicles are not authorized to cross in front of an aircraft on a runway.

45 Phraseology When operating on the airfield, use clear, concise and correct phraseology. Know your vehicle call sign and speak clearly, distinctly and know exactly what you want to say. Be absolutely sure you understand what the Control Tower has said. If you are unsure of any part, hold your position and request the tower to repeat their instructions. There are four basic steps: 1) identify who your calling and who you are, 2) wait for the tower to respond, 3) State your request and your position, and 4) read back exactly what the tower authorized you to do.

46 Driver - Ground, Cherry Alpha. **Wait for a response** Tower - Cherry Alpha, Cherry Point Ground Driver - Ground, Cherry Alpha is at the base of the tower, requesting permission to proceed across Runway 5 to Charlie Taxiway. Tower - Cherry Alpha, Ground, proceed up to and hold short of Runway 5 abeam Charlie Taxiway. Driver - Ground, Cherry Alpha is proceeding up to and will hold short of Runway 5 abeam Charlie Taxiway. **PROCEED** Phraseology Example Driver - Cherry Point Ground, Cherry Alpha is holding short of Runway 5.

47 Tower - Cherry Alpha proceed across Runway 5 to Charlie Taxiway. Driver - Ground, Cherry Alpha is proceeding across Runway 5 to Charlie Taxiway. **PROCEED** Driver - Ground, Cherry Alpha is clear of Runway 5 on Charlie Taxiway. Tower Cherry Alpha Roger. * Runway incursions are the number one airfield hazard to pilots and air traffic controllers. FAA standards direct that all ATC hold short instructions SHALL be read back verbatim.

49 Lost Communications Prior to entering the movement area: Check your radio, re-attempt. Get another radio. *** Vehicles shall not enter a movement area without two way communication with the tower. While on the movement area: Check your radio. Point vehicle at the tower and flash head lights. Hold your position, tower will send out an assistance vehicle.

50 Light Gun Signals Steady Green Steady Red Flashing Red Flashing white Cleared to cross; proceed; go Stop Clear/exit the runway/taxiway immediately Return to starting point Alternating Red/Green Exercise extreme caution

51 Closed Field Procedures Do not cut across the center mat. Look both ways for any landing or departing aircraft. Broadcast your intentions on Ground Control frequency in the blind. Example: (call sign) broadcasting in the blind, crossing runway five right from the base of the tower to the PAR site. Cross the runway. After crossing the runway, broadcast on frequency that you are clear of the runway.

52 BASH Bird Aircraft Strike Hazard (BASH)- Incidents involving collision between any of nature s creatures and an aircraft.

53 Bird Aircraft Strike Hazard Reporting Report large flocks of birds or any animals around the airfield proper that could be a potential hazard to aircraft. Relay the information to Ground Control.

54 Foreign Object Debris (FOD)

55 FOD Foreign Object Damage (FOD) is damage to aeronautical equipment caused by an object external to that equipment. FOD Checkpoints. Ingestion of foreign objects by gas turbine engines accounts for the largest percentage of premature engine removals from naval aircraft. FOD presents personnel and material hazards, consumes valuable maintenance man-hours, imposes additional unscheduled workloads on both using and supporting activities, creates shortages, wastes dollars, and reduces operational readiness. Most FOD can be attributed to poor housekeeping, facility deterioration, improper maintenance practices or carelessness.

56 CREW REST MCO Currently mandates 8 consecutive hours of rest in any given 24-hour period. Limits total driving time to 10 hours on any given shift.
