  2. MCAS CHERRY POINT Basic Airfield Vehicle Operator’s Indoctrination Course (AVOIC)

  3. REFERENCES • FAA Handbook 7110.65 • NAVAIR 00-80T-114 • AirStaO P 3710.5 • ATCFacO P3722.1

  4. PURPOSE • The purpose of the Basic Airfield Vehicle Operator’s Indoctrination Course (AVOIC) 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.

  5. Course Overview • Classroom • Airfield Tour and Practical application • Pass a written exam with an 80% or better

  6. 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

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. Operating on movement areas • Never operate any vehicle on the airfield movement areas without establishing two way communications with the control tower. • 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.

  10. Maintain radio discipline at all times. • After receiving authorization, look both ways before crossing a runway.  • Airport speed limit is 15 MPH. 5 MPH when towing an aircraft.  • 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. 

  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.

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

  25. 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.

  26. Operating terms • Acknowledge – Let me know you have received and understand this message. • Adviseintentions – Tell me what you plan to do. • Affirmative – Yes. • Confirm – My version is…is that correct? • Correction – An error has been made in the transmission and the correct version follows. • Go ahead – State your request (never means “proceed”). • Hold – Stop where you are.

  27. Hold short of … - Proceed to, but hold short of a specific point. • Negative – No, or permission not granted, or that is not correct • Proceed – You are authorized to begin or continue moving. • Read back – Repeat my message back to me. • Roger – I have received all of your last transmission. • Say again – Repeat what you just said. • Standby – Wait…I will get back to you. The caller should reestablish contact if the delay is lengthy.

  28. Unable – I can’t do it. • Verify – Request confirmation of information. • 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.

  29. 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.

  30. Phraseology Example 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** Driver - “ Cherry Point Ground, Cherry Alpha is holding short of Runway 5”.

  31. 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.

  33. 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.

  34. Closed Field Procedures • Cross perpendicular to the runway. • 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 140.1 that you are clear of the runway.

  38. Foreign Object Debris (FOD)

  39. FOD • Foreign Object Damage (FOD) is damage to aeronautical equipment caused by an object external to that equipment. • FOD to aircraft, engines, support equipment, and other aeronautical equipment is a costly problem which cannot be overstated. • 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.

  40. Vehicles and FOD • Vehicles transiting the aircraft operating surfaces carry the ingredients for FOD. • Tires pick up rocks and deposit them on the runways. • Mud caked on the vehicle can fall off and create a hazard. • Bolts, fasteners and other hardware are often found to be culprits in a FOD investigation. • Material carried in the back of pickup trucks or on the back of stake beds can find its way to the runway surface.

  41. FOD Prevention • Stop and check your vehicle before you enter an active aircraft operating area such as a taxiway or runway. • Examine the vehicle for anything that may fall off such as caked on mud or other debris. This includes the bed. • Check your tires for material caught in the tread. Any debris found must be removed, collected and properly disposed of. • Inspect the vehicle each time you enter an active area from an inactive area.

  42. When on the movement area, report any observed FOD to the Tower. • Routinely watch for FOD on parking ramps, turn up areas, work spaces, taxiways, test cell areas, and runways. Pick up the material and dispose of it properly. • Clean up your work area. Account for each tool, each item of support equipment, and consumable used in the repair of items on the airfield. • A washer left on a runway can easily do 1.5 million dollars in damage.
