The sight of Coast Guard small boats and buoy tenders examining and maintaining ATON is familiar to Auxiliarists and mariners alike. Given the care and diligence required in this activity (e.g., the use of horizontal sextant angles and precise electronic systems for determining whether or not a buoy is off station), it may seem odd to include this activity in a training text on air operations manual, where the observer may be limited to brief glimpses of such aids from a rapidly moving platform at altitudes of 1000 feet or more. Nonetheless, pilots and observers can make a substantial contribution to the ATON program. The relatively high speed of the typical Auxiliary aircraft permits a rapid search of an area to identify aids that may have discrepancies of one type or another. Potential problems with these aids can be confirmed by follow-up visits by surface craft or other assets.
F.3. Training
To be effective in most operational programs, Auxiliarists need specialized training and can benefit greatly from detailed local knowledge. The ATON program is no exception in this regard, and is particularly demanding of specialized expertise and detailed local knowledge. Pilots, air crew, and observers seeking to employ aircraft in support of the ATON and chart updating programs should be thoroughly familiar with applicable guidance documents and District policy.
F.4. Safety
Aerial surveying of ATON should be accomplished from a close enough distance to observe relevant objects, but not at the risk of causing alarm to persons on the ground or placing the aircraft and crew at risk.
F.5. ATON Aviation Missions
This section describes the ATON mission areas supported by AUXAIR personnel.
F.5.a. Area Familiarization
It is often helpful to provide area familiarization over-flights for ATON personnel. Flying a “pre-cruise” mission for the crew of buoy tenders provides them with a bird’s eye view of the mission area. These flights are also useful when there is a change of command for a buoy tender in order to take the incoming and outgoing COs on an area familiarization flight.
F.5.b. Logistics Transport
Auxiliary aircraft may be utilized to transport parts for cutter or small boat support or a special item to repair an aid.
F.5.c. Passenger Transport
Auxiliary aircraft may be used to transport Coast Guard or other personnel to support ATON activities.
F.5.d. Latest Charts
The Coast Guard Auxiliary furnishes valuable information to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Ocean Survey (NOS) for chart correction and updating of nautical and aeronautical charts. For general information, background, and a discussion of appropriate forms to use, refer to the latest edition of the Aids to Navigation and Chart Updating Guide. Auxiliarists on land and in surface vessels have gathered the necessary and appropriate data for this purpose for many years, and recently Auxiliary aircraft have also been utilized for this role.
