A.2.  District
 Success of the Auxiliary Aviation Program will be due in large part to coordination and liaison within the District structure with Coast Guard air stations, units and Sectors.  Maintaining these important relationships and assisting these entities in joint training is essential to the Auxiliary Aviation Program’s success.
At the District level, the Auxiliary Aviation Program is organized under a District Staff officer for Aviation (DSO-AV) and several Assistant District Staff officers for Aviation (ADSO-AV).  Figure 1-1 provides a typical District aviation organization.  The District Flight Safety officer (DFSO) is an advisor to the aviation staff and to the District Commodore for safety of flight issues.  The DFSO’s responsibilities include working with the DSO-AV in evaluating the safety of District aviation programs and procedures, developing and implementing an aviation incident plan and being a member of the District Aviation Board.  The DFSO reports directly to the District Commodore on these matters and on overall safety of Auxiliary flight issues.  Further information on District staff positions is found in the Auxiliary Manual, COMDTINST M16790.1 (series).

Section B. Program Support Requirements

 
Introduction
 The mission of Auxiliary operations is to provide operational, logistical, and training support for appropriate Coast Guard programs.  Auxiliary aircraft are most often used as observation and communication platforms.  The decision to employ Auxiliary resources rests with the Coast Guard Operational Commanders.  This section provides a brief description of Auxiliary Aviation Program support requirements and the Coast Guard missions for which they provide this support.  Detailed descriptions of mission support requirements and the specific missions are discussed in the chapters referenced below.
 
B.1.  Qualification Requirements
 Pilots are required to be qualified and current for the mission.  In the event that any mission occurs at night or in instrument meteorological condition (IMC), the Auxiliary Operations Policy Manual, COMDTINST M16798.3 (series), requires that in most circumstances there must be two instrument rated pilots at the controls.
While not a requirement for all missions, the pilot and crew should, whenever possible, be SAR capable.  Whenever offshore flights are contemplated, the crew carries and/or wears water survival equipment appropriate to the aircraft type and water temperature.  If Coast Guard personnel are carried on the flight, they do not automatically fulfill the requirement for qualified crew in a SAR or any other situation.
