 AUXILIARY AVIATION TRAINING MANUAL
 

 
1. PURPOSE.  This Manual applies to all members of Coast Guard Forces who are involved with Coast Guard Auxiliary Aviation Operations, including Auxiliarists, and military and civilian personnel.
 
2. ACTION.  Area and District Commanders, commanders of maintenance and logistics commands, commanding officers of headquarters units, assistant commandants for directorates, Judge Advocate General, and special staff offices at Headquarters shall ensure all Auxiliarists, all Directors of Auxiliary, and any military or civilian Coast Guard members who are involved with Auxiliary Aviation Operations become thoroughly familiar with this Manual.  Internet release authorized.
 
3. DIRECTIVES AFFECTED.  The previous edition of this Manual titled, the Coast Guard Auxiliary Air Operations Training Text, COMDTINST M16798.5A, is hereby canceled and should be recycled.
 
4. DISCUSSION.  This Manual outlines techniques and training guidance necessary for effective operation of the Coast Guard Auxiliary Aviation Program.  The Coast Guard Auxiliary has been a critical part of the Coast Guard’s historic transition to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Auxiliary now assumes the role and responsibility as the Department’s lead organization of dedicated volunteers.  This Manual further sets the course for the ready, reliable, and relevant Auxiliary operational support of the full spectrum of Coast Guard missions, both traditional and new, and in a different and far more complex maritime security (MARSEC) environment.  This new Auxiliary Aviation Training Manual should be reviewed in its entirety.  Further information about the Coast Guard Auxiliary Aviation Program can be found on the Chief Director, Auxiliary web site at http://www.cgaux.info/g_ocx/.  Where this Manual may conflict with the Auxiliary Operations Policy Manual, COMDTINST  M16798.3, (series), the Auxiliary Operations Policy Manual takes precedence.

5. MAJOR CHANGES.  This Manual represents a major revision of the previous Coast Guard Auxiliary Air Operations Training Text promulgated 17 September 1993.  Due to the extensive changes, units and individuals are encouraged to conduct a thorough review of the Manual.  This edition of the Manual contains the following significant policy changes:
a. Improved format of entire Manual to facilitate ease of use, including utilizing information mapping features, and reorganizing text.
b. Inserted terms and definitions into various chapters.
c. Expanded Crew Resource Management (CRM) material (Chapter 3).
d. Included Risk Assessment Matrix material (Chapter 3).
e. Improved human factors affecting flight safety (Chapter 8).
f. Improved survival discussion and techniques (Chapter 9).
