T-6 FLYING STATUS (cont)
STATUS / CATEGORY 7. SLOTS a. Minimum ceiling
and visibility 300 / 1. b. Plan recovery
to land within designated landing window.
c. Plan all approaches to a full stop.
Coordinate radar delays, multiple
approaches and cross-country / out and
backs through SUP to the SOF. 8. RECALL a.
Coordinate launches with the SOF. b.
Conditions necessitate an orderly recovery
flow. c. See page 51 for airspeeds and
procedures. d. The SOF will coordinate with
RAPCON to recover all aircraft in the
desired order (i.e. student solo
first). e. All aircrew request recovery from
area or outlying fix. Expect delays and
exercise good radio discipline.
9. AREA HOLD a. Stop all
launches. b. Airborne aircraft not in the
pattern follow guidance on page
51. 10. STANDBY a. No local aircraft
airborne. b. All local flying is suspended
for an indefinite period of time until
conditions improve to support a better
status. 11. GUNSHY a. Minimum ceiling and
visibility 2500 / 3. OPERATIONS b. Six
aircraft maximum in pattern. c. Must be able
to maintain VFR after canceling IFR when
entering Gunshy, and able to maintain VFR until
receiving IFR when leaving. ALTERNATES
Alternate fuels are only included on ATIS if they
differ from the standard fuel requirements in
the In-Flight Guide (IFG). When alternate fuels
differ from the IFG due to icing or other
factors, the SOF will direct ATC personnel to
include alternate fuels in the ATIS
message. NOTE The SOF may include additional
remarks and / or impose additional restrictions
to any flying status.

RUNWAY CHANGE PROCEDURES / ITS
RUNWAY CHANGE PROCEDURES PRIOR TO RUNWAY
CHANGE 15 MIN ------ Solos with less than 600
directed to FULL STOP. 10 MIN ------ Aircraft
with less than 500 (300 if GTR is open) FULL
STOP or depart the pattern. 05 MIN ------ No
RADAR entries to VFR pattern. No pitchouts
except for FULL STOPS. No high key. 00 MIN
------ Sunfish directs aircraft in pattern to
climb and maintain 2200 MSL. Depart pattern on
the turn to downwind and execute VFR re-entry
procedures for new runway. NOTE TIMES ARE FOR
MISSION PLANNING ONLY. ACCOMPLISH ONLY
WHEN DIRECTED BY THE RSU / TOWER.
INDEX OF THERMAL STRESS (ITS) RESTRICTIONS CAUTIO
N ZONE 1. IP accomplishes exterior inspection
on spare aircraft. 2. Solo students may
accomplish a second exterior inspection if
physically fit. Consider waiting in the
line shack if spare aircraft is not ready. 3.
Limit ground ops to 90 minutes (time outside
air-conditioned environment). 4. Avoid exercise
four hours prior to takeoff. DANGER ZONE (In
addition to CAUTION restrictions) 1. Ground
operations limited to 45 minutes (time outside
air-conditioned environment). 2. Maximum of one
spare (two exterior inspections) on initial dual
sorties under DANGER, no spare on subsequent dual
sorties. 3. Solo students are authorized only
one exterior inspection per sortie. 4. Wait in
the line shack if spare aircraft is not ready. 5.
Minimum recovery time between flights is two
hours (landing time to next takeoff time) if BOTH
landing and takeoff are under ITS DANGER. Note
Does not apply to C4201/C4202 sorties (initial
solo). NOTE Be alert for symptoms of heat
stress and drink plenty of caffeine-free
liquids. WIND CHILL RESTRICTIONS CAUTION
ZONE 1. Ground ops limited to 30 minutes (time
outside heated environment). NOTE When wind
chill exceeds -20 F, flights require OG/CC
approval. Be alert for symptoms of hypothermia.

SUNFISH PROCEDURES (If TO/LDG on center
runway) TAXI OUT (13C) Monitor CH 2 (Sunfish)
approaching Taxiway L until across Rwy 13R. A
traffic light located on the opposite side of
runway is available for minimum communications.
After receiving a green light, pilots will
visually clear final before crossing the active
runway. AFTER LANDING (31C) Hold short of the
VFR Hold Line, north end of the inside runway.
Monitor CH 2 (Sunfish) and await clearance to
cross from Sunfish. Once clear of 31L switch to
CH 1 (Ground Control) and taxi to park. TIRE
WEAR CRITERIA Tires will be changed when any
tire limit criteria is reached. The aircraft
commander may request a tire change before
reaching the criteria listed below when
anticipating heavy tire usage. As a guide do not
plan to accept an aircraft with MAIN GEAR

STANDARD CLEARANCES (cont)
COLUMBUS INSTRUMENT DELAY PATTERN (REQUIRED WX
2500/3) Fly VFR pattern departure procedures if
RSU has control of Rwy 13R/31L, or West Point
One Departure if tower has control and the status
is less than restricted overhead. Make approach
request with departure on CH 4. Expect handoff
to arrival (CH 16). If unable to enter delay
pattern, proceed with profile previously cleared
for. After completion of touch-and-go / low
approach, contact Sunfish for pattern entry or
departure sequencing thru Sunfish pattern.
Maintain 700 MSL or below until departure end
of the center runway. Cross-Country / Out and
Back (DD175) All T-6 aircraft departing the
Sunfish traffic pattern will utilize VFR Pattern
departure procedures when Sunfish RSU has
control of Rwy 13R/31L. When tower has control
of Rwy 13R/31L and the status is Restricted
Overhead or better, aircrew will fly the VFR
PATTERN DEPARTURE PROCEDURES per the IFG, until
told to proceed on course, at which point

T-6 OPERATIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Guidance If your overall ORM assessment is
YELLOW, seek Flt/CC or higher approval to step.
If your overall ORM assessment is RED, seek SUP
approval to step.
The Four Key ORM Principles -Accept no
unnecessary risk. -Make risk decisions at the
appropriate level. -Accept risk when the benefits
outweigh the costs. -Integrate ORM into Air Force
operations and planning at all levels.
The Six ORM Steps 1. Identify the hazards. 2.
Assess risk. 3. Develop controls. 4. Make
decisions. 5. Implement controls. 6. Supervise
controls.
26
35
BIRD AIRCRAFT STRIKE HAZARD PLAN
BIRD CONDITION LOW Normal bird activities within
the local pattern area with a low probability of
hazard (no restrictions). BIRD CONDITION
MODERATE Concentrations of birds observed in
locations represent a probable hazard to safe
flying operations. Exercise increased vigilance.
Traffic Pattern Minimize pattern work
to that required by training. To the maximum
extent possible, flight leads will direct
wingmen to route below 5,000 MSL. Aircraft
conducting formation approaches may fly
close formation inside 5 miles. Formations on
initial will maintain route until 3
miles. Low Level Maintain at or above
1,000 AGL. Aircrew may fly as low as 500 AGL
to complete minimum syllabus or checkride
requirements. After requirements are met,
aircrew will maintain at or above 1,000
AGL. Aircrews are encouraged to complete 500
AGL training on Bird Condition low legs
if available. BIRD CONDITION SEVERE Heavy
concentrations of birds on or immediately above
the active runway or other specific locations
represent an immediate hazard to safe flying
operations. Exercise extreme caution.
Traffic Pattern Stop all takeoffs. Divert
aircraft as necessary. Landings should be
accomplished from the overhead pattern to a
full-stop landing. Formation procedures for
BWC Moderate apply. Formation approaches will
not be flown, except in an emergency. Low
Level If the current and/or forecast AHAS
indicates severe for any route segments
planned to be flown, apply the following
guidance, in order of precedence, to minimize the
bird strike threat 1. Select a
different low-level route/mission (weather and
operational constraints
permitting). 2. Enter or exit the
route at published (AP1/B) alternate entry/exit
points to avoid the severe leg(s).
3. Maintain at or above 1,500 AGL
minimum. Squadron SUPs may approve flying the
affected route segments at the top
of the route segment altitude block (do not
exceed AP1/B route altitude
restrictions) or 1,500' AGL, whichever is higher.
LOW LEVEL PRE-FLIGHT PLANNING PROCEDURES Crews
should use AHAS, BAM and other reports of bird
activity to minimize bird strike threats with
informed decision making and sound ORM practices.
The primary data source for current bird
activity on low-level routes is the Avian Hazard
Advisory System (AHAS) (www.usahas.com). The
Current AHAS model is considered the most
reliable due to the use of current NEXRAD radar
data (where available). If AHAS is not
operational, crews should use BAM. Prior to the
mission briefing, but no earlier than two hours
prior to scheduled entry time, aircrews will
check the current and forecast AHAS models for
their intended low level route. Crews will check
the current BAM/AHAS at step time. OFF STATION
PRE-FLIGHT PLANNING PROCEDURES Prior to the
mission briefing for an off station sortie to a
military airfield, check the current and forecast
AHAS. For civil airfields, use the Bird
Avoidance Model (BAM) (http//www.usahas.com/bam/)
. It is a prediction of bird activity based
solely on historical data and bird migration
patterns. It is not the most current source for
bird activity but does contain forecast data for
civil airfields. If the BAM/AHAS indicates
severe, call the tower or Airfield Management at
the destination airfield to get the current bird
status. If the tower indicates high bird
activity, or the bird status is severe, do not
file without OG/CC approval. If the actual bird
activity is moderate or low, you may file there
but should have an alternate plan such as
diverting or flying one approach to a full stop
if the bird status is severe upon arrival. Comply
with local bird avoidance procedures.
27
36
BIRD AIRCRAFT STRIKE HAZARD PLAN (cont)
LOCAL BIRD ADVISORIES Aircrews are reminded to
remain vigilant for bird activity regardless of
the existing BWC. Report any hazardous bird
activity to the tower or RSU. The following
information should be included in the PIREP
callsign, location, altitude, time,
species/description, approximate number, and
behavior of birds/wildlife (soaring, direction of
travel, etc.). Additionally, contact the SOF as
soon as practical with the same
information. PHASE I AND PHASE II BIRD
ACTIVITY PHASE I Columbus AFB operates under
Phase I usually from May-August. Bird activity
is generally light during this period of the
year. The primary threat during this period
consists of occasional soaring raptors during the
midday time period. Additionally, caution should
be used during dawn and dusk hours when the
majority of bird movement occurs. PHASE II
Columbus AFB operates under Phase II usually from
September-April. The airfield and areas of
operation in/near the Mississippi Migratory
Flyway have the potential for dense migratory
bird activity continuously during this period.
In addition, the potential exists for waterfowl
feeding flights from the surface to 2000 AGL
during the dawn/dusk time period from
October-January. The following volume use
airfields will be considered minimum BWC Moderate
during the period 1 hour of sunrise/sunset
Greenwood Leflore, MS (GWO), Greenville, MS
(GLH), Monroe, LA (MLU) and Jackson, MS
(JAN). The following low level routes will be
closed during Phase II IR-68, IR-70, IR-91.
