  14. Flightline SafetyMiscellaneous • Escorts: • Usually US Air Force personnel or representatives from the Departure Team • Troop/passengers should be escorted to and from the aircraft

  15. Flightline SafetyMiscellaneous • Never sit or lie down on the parking ramp or under parked vehicles • Avoid directing headlights towards taxiing aircraft at night

  17. Vehicle Operating RulesCircle of Safety • Don’t allow vehicles inside Circle of Safety unless they are: • Being loaded on aircraft • Servicing the aircraft • Drivers • Must be qualified operators • Understand hand signals • Use wheel chocks on vehicles

  18. 15mph 25kph 5mph 8kph 3 mph MAXIMUM 5kph Vehicle Operating Rules Speed Limits DO NOT speed on the Flightline! • On the aircraft parking ramp • Within 25 feet (8 m) of the aircraft • Inside the Circle of Safety

  19. Vehicle Operating RulesParking • Park outside the Circle of Safety • Park perpendicular to aircraft PARKINGVEHICLES

  20. Vehicle Operating Rules Parking • Unattended vehicles must have keys left in the ignition • Transmissions • Automatic • Manual • Darkness/Inclement weather • Use parking lights or flashers

  21. Loading Safety

  22. Loading Safety Onloading • Load team members • Will not wear rings or jewelry • Will wear gloves • Tie down equipment will not be thrown about the aircraft • Only minimum essential personnel in the cargo compartment during winching operations

  23. Loading Safety Onloading • Load team members • Do not step on or over winch cable • When using MHE, be sure to watch your step traversing betweenaircraft ramps and K-loaders • Have passengers enter the aircraft after all loading is accomplished

  24. Loading Safety Onloading • Vehicles • Do not back vehicles towards the aircraft without spotters and guides • Wheel chocks must be used to prevent vehicles striking the plane • Do not walk in front or behind of vehicles during on/off-loading procedures

  25. Loading Safety Onloading • Vehicles • Only one person will direct the vehicle driver • Safety chains, pintle hooks, electric lines will be connected before towing trailers • Ensure a minimum of one forward and one aft device is installed. Only then may the brakes be released, or the winch cable removed

  26. Loading Safety Offloading • Deplane passengers before cargo when possible • Do not remove restraint or start a vehicle until told to do so by the Loadmaster or Boom Operator

  27. Loading Safety Engine Running On/Offloads (ERO) • Adverse weather • Vision of participants may become obscured • Self propelled vehicles may require winching • Safety equipment • Gloves, steel-toed boots, hearing protection, and goggles/Night Vision Goggles (NVGs) • Reflective belts during hours of darkness (unless using NVGs)

  28. Loading Safety Engine Running On/Offloads (ERO) • ERO distances for passengers and cargo • C-130 = 50’ (15m) before turning / 300’ (91m) before stopping • C-17 = 25’ (8m) before turning / 200’ (61m) before stopping • C-5 = 150’ (46m) before turning / 300’ (91m) before stopping

  29. Emergency Vehicles

  30. Emergency VehiclesFire/Crash Rescue • Be aware of your surroundings • Watch for rescue vehicles responding to calls • Emergency vehicles have the right of way when responding to calls • Listen for sirens

  31. Emergency VehiclesPolice Cars • Watch for police cars responding to calls or patrolling the flightline • Notify them of any unauthorized persons

  32. Summary • Flightline Safety • Vehicle Operating Rules • Loading Safety • Emergency Vehicles
