  1. CAP Safety ProgramMaster Safety Course

  2. This presentation is intended to be used by members who wish to progress to the Master level in the Civil Air Patrol's Safety Officer specialty track. Training in the Safety Officer specialty track is self-paced and intended to take place both on-the-job and through self-study. This presentation and CAP Pamphlet 217 will guide senior members through the training and is designed to help them learn effectively as Safety Officers. Specialty tracks are governed by CAPR 50-17, Senior Member Professional Development Program.

  3. Your decision to obtain the Master rating represents your commitment to acquire the highest level of knowledge in the CAP's safety program. A safety officer's job is a continuous learning experience and provides you the opportunity to mentor others, both senior members and cadets.

  4. Course Outline • Review of CAP safety officer's duties and responsibilities • The safety officer's role in CAP's three missions: • Aerospace Education • Cadet Programs • Emergency Services • Safety officer inspections of aircraft

  5. Safety Officer Duties and Responsibilities • CAP safety officer positions are established to assist and advise commanders. They report directly to their commanders. • Ensure your appointment as safety officer is documented and accomplished in accordance with CAPR 35-1, Assignment and Duty Status. • Notify the next higher echelon safety officer of your appointment as safety officer.

  6. Safety Officer Duties and Responsibilities • Develop a program of regular safety education and accident prevention training for the unit. • Deliver no less than 15 minutes per month of face-to-face safety education and training to unit members. • Use rational flexibility to get the latest safety meeting information to members who missed the monthly safety meeting before they participate in a CAP activity, including unit meetings. • Obviously, they may have to come to a unit meeting to review the information from the missed meeting.

  7. Safety Officer Duties and Responsibilities • Develop a program ofregular safety education and accident prevention training for the unit. • Incorporate a review CAP's Sentinel and newsletters of other safety orientated organizations. • Conduct an Operational Risk Management (ORM) briefing at least once annually during a unit safety meeting. • Ensure all new CAP members receive ORM training. • Forward monthly briefing reports to the next higher echelon of command including topics covered and total members attending. • Maintain a roster of subordinate unit safety officers.

  8. Safety Officer Duties and Responsibilities • Ensure ORM and safety briefings are incorporated into all field training exercises, encampments, and other special activities where members face elevated risks. • Assist the unit commander, as needed, to establish his/her accident prevention program with letters, reports, bulletins, directives or operating procedures. • Complete the annual on-line safety survey and ensure all reported hazards and/or practices identified have been corrected prior to the report being closed.

  9. Safety Officer Duties and Responsibilities • Conduct an annual Safety Day during the month of October to focus on improving safety knowledge and attitudes during the new fiscal year. • Have CAPFs 26, CAP Safety Improvement or Hazard Report and FAA Forms 8740-5, Safety Improvement Report, available to unit members and provide instructions on how to use them. • Conduct staff visits to subordinate units to assist them in identifying and solving safety problems.

  10. Safety Officer Duties and Responsibilities • Establish unit mishap reporting procedures. • Report all cases of mishaps arising out of CAP activities using the on-line reporting system within the time limits specified in CAPR 62-2. • Review and analyze findings from mishap investigation reports to determine trends and methods to prevent future mishaps. • Encourage pilots to participate in FAA's Pilot Proficiency Program (Wings Program). • Encourage nominations for CAP's safety awards.

  11. Safety Officer Duties and Responsibilities • Establish a safety meeting file to include: • Safety lecture outlines for topics to be covered in safety presentations. • A list of safety meeting resources, i.e. guest speakers, safety websites, nearby military safety personnel , videos, etc. • Monthly meeting reports. • Establish a file of safety educational material. • Establish a safety schedule of events.

  12. Safety Officer Continuity Book • Most successful safety officers have a continuity book. • Without a continuity book, a safety officer often must relearn the same lessons and information that his/her predecessor already discovered. • Should be used daily as a source of reference with information not readily found elsewhere. • Continuity books can be on paper in a book or can be electronic. • Additional information about continuity books can be found at: http://www.cawg.cap.gov/html/Pa/bucb.pdf

  13. The Safety Officer and CAP's Three Missions • The Master rating in any CAP specialty track represents the highest level of knowledge associated with that staff position. • The Master rated safety officer's knowledge encompasses all three mission areas of CAP: Aerospace Education, Cadet Programs and Emergency Services.

  14. The Safety Officer and Aerospace Education • CAP's Aerospace Education mission is covered by these publications: • CAPR 280-2, Civil Air Patrol Aerospace Education • CAPR 50-20, CAP Model Rocketry Program • CAPP 15, Aerospace Education Officers' Handbook Mission • CAPP 52-11, Sally Ride Science Festivals - Project Officer's Guide

  15. The Safety Officer and Aerospace Education • Apply ORM to all Aerospace Education activites including: • Model Rocketry • Fly-A-Teacher • Summer Workshops for Teachers • Annual AEO School for AE officers • Aerospace Education Excellence (AEX) Program

  16. The Safety Officer and Aerospace Education • CAP's Model Rocketry Program consists of three stages and is conducted in accordance with CAPR 50-20. • CAPR 50-20 says, "It is the responsibility of the Qualified Senior Member to see that the (National Association of Rocketry) NAR Safety Code guidelines are followed." • The NAR Safety Code guidelines may be viewed at www.nar.org/NARmrsc.html

  17. The Safety Officer and Aerospace Education • CAP's Fly-A-Teacher program allows CAP pilots to give orientation flights to teachers who are Aerospace Education Members (AEM). • It is important that all safety measures associated with aircraft operations are applied to Fly-A-Teacher flights.

  18. The Safety Officer and Aerospace Education • CAP's Aerospace Education Excellence (AEX) program consists of six aerospace activities and one two-hour or longer field experience. • ORM should be conducted at the start of these AE projects to include materials to be used and construction procedures. • Project guides for cadets and senior members can be ordered when a unit enrolls in the program.

  19. The Safety Officer and Cadet Programs • CAP's Cadet Programs mission is covered by these publications: • CAPR 52-16, Cadet Program Management • CAPM 52-4, National Cadet Competition • CAPP 52-7, Cadet Orientation Flight Syllabus • CAPP 52-8, CAP Unit Honor Guard Program • CAPP 52-18, Cadet Physical Fitness Program

  20. The Safety Officer and Cadet Programs • Approximately 40% of CAP's members are cadets. • The majority of a year's bodily injury mishap reports are submitted in June, July and August - the months when most cadet special activities occur. • These mishaps occur to both the cadet participants and the senior member support personnel at the activity. • Safety MUST become the number one priority in the cadet program for both the cadets and the senior members who support the program.

  21. The Safety Officer and Cadet Programs • Areas of concern at all cadet activities, based on trends from reported mishaps, are: • Dehydration. • Passing out due to locked knees during formations. • Honor guards passing out because they duct taped their shirts and ascots too tightly to prevent them from "riding up." • Improper or lack of warm-up and stretching before PT. • Sunburn in summer and winter. • Blisters from improper fitting shoes. • Trips, sprains, cuts and abrasions.

  22. The Safety Officer and Cadet Programs • Safety officers should be familiar with the cadet orientation flights and flight training. All aspects of aircraft safety apply to these activities. • Cadet safety officers should be involved in and work with you in ORM at cadet activities and at your local unit, as well as with any recommendations. • Successfully mentoring a cadet safety officer in ORM and accident prevention will provide an avenue for cadets to emulate a peer in safety awareness and prevention.

  23. The Safety Officer and Cadet Programs • In order to obtain the Master rating you will be required to serve as a safety officer on staff at a group level or higher cadet competition, encampment, leadership school, or special activity lasting longer than two consecutive days. • Complete a written ORM safety analyses and include recommending corrective actions to the activity commander/director.

  24. The Safety Officer and Emergency Services • CAP's Emergency Services mission is covered by these publications: • CAPR 60-1, CAP Flight Management • CAPR 60-3, CAP Emergency Services Training and Operational Missions • CAPR 60-5, Critical Incident Stress Management • CAPR 60-6, CAP Counterdrug Operations • CAPR 100-1, Communications

  25. The Safety Officer and Emergency Services • In CAP's Emergency Services (ES) mission, safety must always be a primary concern. • To earn a Master safety officer rating, you must become a qualified Mission Safety Officer (MSO). MSOs report directly to Incident Commanders. • As a MSO you are responsible to provide guidance to Communication Unit Leaders, Ground Branch Directors and/or Air Operations Branch Directors, to assist with vehicle and/or aircraft inspections and other duties as required.

  26. The Safety Officer and Emergency Services • ORM should be directed at reducing various types of risk while expanding operational capabilities and effectiveness. • An initial primary hazards identification tool, like the Operations Analysis or Preliminary Hazards Analysis Tool is a good option for ORM's Step 1 (see Advanced ORM Course). • Progress to the Logic Diagram and add specialty tools such as the Mapping Tool for airport and mission base hazards along with the Mission Protection Tool to ensure mission success.

  27. The Safety Officer and Emergency Services • Radio equipment poses specific electronic hazards and safety issues. • Stationary equipment must be grounded using a solid or stranded copper wire of 10 gage or higher. • Radio operators must know the location of the main power switch and be properly instructed in disconnect procedures. • Radio personnel should be familiar with first aid procedures concerned with electrical shock. • First aid kit will be available at all base stations. • Generator's gasoline engines pose carbon monoxide hazards, require safe gasoline storage and have fire extinguishers.

  28. The Safety Officer and Emergency Services • Ground team ORM should include the potential for sunburn, dehydration, insect and snake bites, blisters, etc. • A proper safety inspection should be preformed on the team's vehicle, to include necessary first aid and water supplies prior to leaving the mission base. • Prior to leaving the mission base, the ground team should have necessary personal equipment for all members to deal with any reasonably potential situations (weather, terrain, survival, etc.) it may encounter.

  29. The Safety Officer and Emergency Services • Aircraft operations hold the greatest potential for major safety mishaps of all ES activities. • Over 18% of CAP members are pilots. • Aircrews should be familiar with the vast amount of aircraft and airman related safety information available in print and on-line. • Courses from Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association Air Safety Foundation http://www.aopa.org/asf/ • Advisory Circulars at Federal Aviation Administration http://www.faa.gov/ • Safety officers may purchase or download (13MB+) the FAA Risk Management Handbook for their safety library. http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aviation/media/FAA-H-8083-2.pdf

  30. Aircraft Inspections − Overview • This presentation assumes you are at a training or actual mission and that a full set of maintenance records is not available. • These safety inspections do not go to the level of detail that compliance/subordinate unit inspections do. • Aircraft safety inspections do not replace any required maintenance or aircrew inspections. • There are 4 sections in this program and on the CAPF 71, CAP Aircraft Inspection Checklist: 1. Aircraft Records 3. Aircraft Exterior 2. Aircraft Interior 4. Aircraft Lighting

  31. Aircraft Inspections − Getting Started • Obtain a copy of a CAPF 71 • Fill in these items at the top left of the form: • Date / Wing • Registration N # (e.g. N999CP) • Make______ / Model______ / Year______ • Current Tach Time
