    AEROSP.ACE EDUCATION/,FROM WORKSHOP TO CLASSROOMOne of the missions of Civil Air Patrol Is to provide programs for the aerospace edueatlon of American cttrzerrs. CAP works towardthis end through both internal and external aeroapace education programs. The internal program is for the benefit of CAP cadet andsenior members while the external program is designed to add to the aerospace knowledge of the general public. Basic to the exter-nal program Is the teacl1l119of teachers. In cooperation with colleges, and universities, and individual school systems in 42 statesand Puerto Rico, Civil Air Patrol supported 188 graduate-level workshops attended by approximately 5,600 educators in 1982_Afterattending a workshop teachers recognize the potential of aerospace for adding an exciting new dimension in the classroom for bothstudent and teacher.

    A ER OSPA CE ED OC flT lO HA major new Civil Air Patrol effort in aerospaceeducation during 1982was the Aerospace Education Pro-gram for Senior Members (AEPSM). The program wasdeveloped in response to the Civil Air Patrol NationalCommander's decision that there was a long unfulfilledneed for CAP senior members to receive an education in

    aerospace. The CAP textbook, Aerospace, The Challenge,and a newly prepared study guide and evaluation items arethe basic teaching materials used in the AEPSM.For many years CAP cadets have had a forma! studyrequirement in aerospace education, while senior memberswere expected to acquire their aerospace education catch-as-catch-can. The new program of formal study inaerospace education, the first ever for CAP seniormembers, should result in a membership much better in-formed about lheaerospace world in which they l ive. Theyshould also be better qualified to implement CAP's man-date to educate the American public about the importanceof aerospace in our nation.AEROSPACE EDUCATION WORKSHOPS

    Civil Air Patrol's most important contribution toaerospace education continues to be its support of teachertraining through aerospace education workshops. The pur-pose of the workshop program is to provide attendees witha basic knowledge and interest in aerospace which will beincluded in their teaching upon return to the classroom orschool system.Civil Air Patrol in cooperation with colleges anduniversities, and individual school systems, supported 188graduate-level workshops in42 states and Puerto Rico in

The money wascontributed by members of f ifleen avlatlon-orlented orqanlza-tlons that joined forces to stage a banquet a l the A ir ForceAcademy to salute Civil Air Patrol on Its 40th anniversary.Madsen, dressed In his World War II style CAP uniform, is presi-dent of the Cotorade Aviation Historical Society; one of the spon-sors of the banquet.

    1982. Approximately 5,600 educaters attended these pro-jects. Civil Air Patrol provided advice, assistance and sup-port in developing curriculum according to the re-quirements of the host institution. Air Force support wasprovided in the form of Air Force Reserve personnel on ac-tive duty tours who served as liaison and instructionalresources to the workshop director. In some cases, AirForce airlift was provided for workshop participants tovisit an aerospace facility as part of the curriculum.AEROSPACE EDUCATION MATERIALSAerospace Education Program [or Senior Members.Several documents were provided in support of theAEPSM: a. Student Study Guide. The 104-pa!eStudent Study Guide contains behaviorally-stated learningobjectives with question-type exercises following each ob-jective. Cross-refe.rencing directs users to textbook pageswhere answers to review exercises may be found. Six self-tests of 50 questions each are provided within the studyguide. Test questions also carry references and appendedto the study guide are answers to the 300 self-test ques-tions.

    b. Examinations. Four different forms of thefinal, controlled examination were developed, printed, anddistributed to CAP Wing Directors of Aerospace Educa-tion. Each examination and its answer key were printed onthe same color of paper to avoid exam/answer key mix-ups. For control purposes, the examinations and answerkeys were sequentially numbered and individually pack-aged for each unit in the CAP organizational structure.2

    c. _P rogram Management Forms. A totaJ offive new forms were developed and printed to help CAPaerospace education and testing personnel manage the pro-gram. d. Award Elements. Senior members whocomplete the program are awarded an Aerospace Educa-tion Achievement" certificate, along with a similar walletcard. Awardees are then entitled L O purchase a medal andribbon, signifying their achievement, for wear on theiruniform.

    "Aerospace Update." "Aerospace Update" is a two-page feature presentation of new or projected aerospaceactivities which is printed quarterly in the Civil Air PatrolNews. Each presentation is designed for one of fourcategories: Civil Aviation, Space Activities, Aerospace In-dustry, and Military Aviation. The first "Aerospace Up-date" was printed in the June issue under the Civil Avia-tion category and was entitled "A New Generation of JetAirliners." The second, "Galileo to Jupiter." was printedin the September issue under Space Activities. The MilitaryAviation category will be treated in the December issuewith "Tigershark," an illustrated article on [he F-5G., ..An Introduction to the Literature of Flight." TheCAP Aerospace Education Directorate provided editorial,visualization, and pasteup services for "An Introductionto the Literature of Flight" which was authored by Dr.David K. Vaugban. Itwas published as a Civil Air Patrolpamphlet (CAPP 11) and was provided to aerospaceeducation workshop directors as a resource for their ac-tivities. The pamphlet is also available to other interestedparties through the Civil Air Patrol Bookstore.

    University Award. Dr. S~m Ingram, President of Middle TennesseeSlate University. was presented the National Congress onAerospace Education Plaque by Janet Wolle of the National Airand Space Museum.

    E M E R G E H C Y S E R V I C E SThe overaU objective of the Civil Air PatrolEmergency Services mission is to save lives and relievehuman suffering while safeguarding lhe lives of CAP per-sonnel providing the service. This is accomplished throughemphasis on professionalism in organization, training,planning and mission execution, Care is also exercised toinsure that only qualified members are permitted to par-

    ticipate in actual missions. The CAP Emergency Servicesmission includes search and rescue in support of theAerospace Rescue and Recovery Service and civil defenseand disaster relief operations in support of local, state, andnational emergency services organizations. CAP cooper-ates with local civil officials and rescue organizations insearch and rescue operations and has a mutual supportrelationship with the American National Red Cross, Salva-tion Army, Federal Emergency Management Agency, andother humanitarian organizations in conducting disasterrelief operations.SEARCH AND RESCUEThe U.S. Air Force is assigned responsibility by the-National Search and Rescue Plan for coordinating searchand rescue operations in the inland region of the UnitedSta tes. It discharges this responsi bility thrall gh theMilitary Airlift Command's Aerospace Rescue andRecovery Service operation of the Air Force Rescue Coor-dination Center which coordinates rescue upon request. Inits role as the civilian auxiliary of the Air Force, CAP is theprimary resource available in fulfilling this responsibility.

    During 1982, Civil Air Patrol participated in 1,194Air Force authorized search and rescue missions, flew16,960 hours, and was credited with locating 782 searchobjectives and saving 87 lives.For the eleventh consecutive year the number of CAPfinds on Air Force-authorized missions has' increased;from 103 in 1971 to 782 in 1982. CAP bas also continuedto fly 75070 of search hours on missions coordinated by theAFRCC. In addition to supporting Air Force requests, thePuerto Rico Wing frequently provides search assistance tothe U.S. Coast Guard.CAP has aJso increased realistic search and rescuetraining using SAR aids such as the Track Analysis Pro-gram (TAP) and the emergency locator transmitter (ELT).According to AFRCC data, the ELT continued to be thebest aid available to searchers, and the best hope for timelyrescue of survivors of air crashes. The TAP is also an ex-trernely reliable tool in those instances when it can be used.TAP is a Federal Aviation Administration innovation con-ceived with the help of the CAP California Wing. The pro-gram assists search planners in locating lost aircraft byrecalling computer-generated records of radar signals.Retrieval of the stored radar data at the Air Route TrafficControl Center, in many cases makes it possible to pin-point or estimate the aircraft's last location prior to disap-pearing from radar. CAP mission coordinators routinelyrequest and use this important data in search planning.

AlRLIFT(SARnA) PLANThe Federal Aviation Administration requested CAPsupport in revitalizing state SARnA plans for the effectiveuse of the nation's 209,000 non-air carrier aircraft and603,000 private and commercial pilots during an emergen-cy. Mr. Stan Hicks of FEMA Region VI, agreed to coor-dinate a joint effort between Texas. Louisiana, FAA,FEMA, and CAP to review, rewrite and exercise theSARDA concept. In cooperation with the Texas Chief ofDisaster Emergency Services, Mr. Robert Lansford: Mr.Michael McCullough, Texas Aeronautical Commission:and Colonel George Way, Texas CAP Wing Commander.the Texas SARDA plan was exercised in June. Also,Louisiana CAP Wing Commander. Colonel George sarnsassisted Mr. David Blackshear, Director of Aviation, andMr. Joseph Colson, Director of Emergency ManagementfOT the state of Louisiana in developing a new state pro-totype SARDA plan.In August, the plan was tested and critiqued by theLouisiana Emergency Operations Center, CAP, FAA,FEMA, the North American Air Defense Command, theNational Emergency Airborne Command Post, and theAir Force Emergency Operations Center, As a result ofthis successful exercise, Mr. Blackshear placed a resolutionbefore the National Association of State Aviation officials(NASAO) urging that each state "undertake an immediatedetailed review and revision of their state SARnA plan, Uand "fully integrate the Civil Air Patrol in each state tosupport command and control of SARDA operations."The resolution was passed in September by theNASAO membership. They also recommended thatSARDA be incorporated into annual nationalcivil/military exercises. Mr. Joseph Cate of FAA is work-ing with CAP to update the FAA/CAP Memorandum ofUnderstanding relating to the CAP role in SARDA.

    8.ARSAT PROJECTCivil Air Patrol will help the Air Force test the Searchand Rescue Satellite-Aided Tracking (SARSAT) system byactivating test beacons at selected sites throughout theUnited States. The SARSAT system is a joint effort of theUnited States, Canada, France, and Russia to use satellitesto improve the capability to locate ships and aircraft indistress .. SARSAT will use satellites in low, near-polar or-bit to monitor for distress transmissions which will berelayed to ground stations to fix the location of theemergency. A mission control center will use the data toalert the appropriate rescue coordination center.

    CAP will aid the SARSAT system test effort in twoways. First, two aircraft each from the Florida, Colorado,Washington, Alaska Wings and one from the ArizonaWing are being modified with a new generation ELT. Thenew ELT will decrease or eliminate false activations thatcurrent EL Ts now experience. Also, at various locations inthe United States, CAP wings will activate a field unit ofthe new EL T to measure the system coverage, accuracy,and reliability.Using the Russian satellite already in orbit, thesystem bas been used to locate and save three individualswho crashed in the mountains of Western Canada. Severalnon-distress emergency transmitters have also been locatedwith great accuracy. When fully operational, the SARSATsystem will be a tremendous aid to the CAP search andrescue mission.Test Exercise.

When a violenttornado devastated the town of Grenier, Illinois and on anotheroccasion when a river barge loaded with benzenecrashed Into alock:In the Mississippi River, the video capability provided StateCivil Defenseofficials with live pictures of thedisasters, enablingthem to quickly assess the problem and makedeCisions. SinceInitiation of the pUot program In llllnola, several other CAPwingshave adopted the system and the American National Red Crosshas expressed a strong interest in cooperative use of thiscapability.

    COMMUNICATIONSWith its nationwide communications network, CAPcontinues to provide outstanding communications supportin fulfilling its responsibilities in search and rescue andlocal emergencies. Activation of the network system com-mences with the National Headquarters station at MaxwellAFB, Alabama, which conducts a daily net with stations ineach of the eight CAP regions. Region stations then par-ticipate in network broadcasts involving stations in each oftheir wings. Wing stations conduct networks within theirstate which provide contact with all echelons and whichcan be monitored by individual CAP members. This relaysystem enables communications between National Head-quarters and locations throughout the United States.Additionally, there are special nets organized forspecific purposes. The varied frequencies on HF, VHF,and citizens radio service permit many networks to operatesimultaneously without interfering with each other. TheCAP networks can interface with state,local, and nationalradio nets to provide an effective communications systemduring any emergency.

    MILITARY TRAINING ROUTE SURVEYSCAP works to assure the safety of Air Force andReserve Force aircrew members by helping survey militarylow-level flight training routes for hazards and en-vironmental factors. The FAA has established militarytraining routes to allow military pilots to practice low-levelbomb runs and reconnaisance missions. The routes enablea realistic yet safe mission with the least possible en-vironmental impact.To assure the continued safety of these routes, theFAA requires aerial visual surveys for obstructions andother hazards. The surveys must be flown below 1,000feet, once down the center and once along each side.Strategic Air Command (SAC) and Tactical Air Command(TAC) have in the past used more expensive commerciallight aircraft and pilots to carry personnel to perform thesesurveys. Now, where possible, SAC and TAC units haveturned to CAP to fly the routes. During CY 1982, thefollowing CAP wings assisted in the survey of 19 trainingroutes:Alabama NevadaArizona North CarolinaLouisiana North DakotaMaine South CarolinaMontana South Dakota

    Am FORCE PARTS AND PERSONNEL TRANSPORTA limited Civil Air Patrol activity, the transportingof aircraft parts, personnel, and other required items, isbenefitting both CAP and the Air Force. Many Air Forcebases serve as central supply points or have satellite opera-tions at nearby bases. When there is an immediate need forthis support CAP Can transport the required items. allow-ing combat aircraft to maintain operational status withoutthe delays of scheduled transportation and without wastingvaluable aircrew training time.

    THE CflDET PROGRAMThe Cadet Program is one of the three missions ofCivil Air Patrol and is designed to provide American youtha structured program of personal development in teday'saerospace environment. The program is open to UnitedStates citizens and persons lawfully admitted for perma-nent residence to the United States and its territories and

    possessions who are 13, or have satisfactorily completedthe sixth grade, through 18 years of age. Upon reaching 18,cadets may choose to either become senior members orcontinue in the cadet program until their 21st birthday,The program provides cadets with opportunities todevelop their leadership skills in an aerospace oriented en-vironment. Learning is achieved through a combination ofstudy and performance and involves both individual andgroup effort. Cadets learn and develop under the guidanceof adult CAP leaders and with the advice and assistance ofU.S. Air Force liaison personnel. Cadets progress at theirown pace through a structured program of 15 achieve-ments including aerospace education, leadership, and ac-tivities. Throughout the program, cadets become eligibleto participate in encampments, orientation flights, and avariety of national and international activities. Other in-centives and benefits include: increases in cadet rank,receipt of ribbons and award certificates, eligibility tocompete for academic and flight scholarships, and ad-vanced entry rank of E-3 should a Mitchell Award reci-pient choose to enlist in the U.S. Air Force.

    CADET ENCAMPMENTSEach year, several thousand Civil Air Patrol cadetsattend encampments at Air Force bases and other militaryfacilities throughout the United States and Puerto Rico,For many cadets. this is their first exposure to the everydayexcitement and challenge of the aerospace world. Al-though CAP activities are military oriented, there is nosubstitute for a personal visit, personal involvement andtbe opportunity to meet. talk withand observe men andwomen of the active armed forces. Cadets are exposed tothe military life style, and gain much practical experienceand information on aerospace related career opportunities.Because of its importance in a program of personaldevelopment, the encampment has become a significantpart of the structured CAP cadet program. It is consideredone of the building blocks and is a prerequisite to earningthe General Billy Mitchell Award which is the first majormilestone of cadet achievement. Cadets who earn theMitchell Award become eligible for more advanced specialactivities and automatically qualify for the grade of Air-man First Class (E-3), should they choose to enlist in theAir Force. During 1982, 6,833 CAP cadets and 1,353 CAPsenior members attended encampments. Encampmentswere conducted at 32 active Air Force bases and at 25 otherDepartment of Defense facilities.

More than 200 orientation flights were flown using three Cessna aircraft and 50selectedcadets werepermitted to witness airborne refueling while aboard a KC135from ths 126thAir Refueling wing of the Illinois Air National Guard.

    INTERNATIONAL AIR CADET EXCHANGE (lACE)The purpose of the lACE program is to foster inter-national understanding, goodwill, and friendship amongyoung people who share a common interest in aviation.The program, conceived by the Air Cadet League ofCanada and the Air Training Command of Great Britain,was first conducted in 1947 between Canada and GreatBritain. Civil Air Patrol, witb the assistance of the U.S.Air Force, entered the exchange in 1948. The program hascontinued and grown over the years with as many as 41countries participating at one time or another.During the past year, 106 cadets and 21 senior escortswere exchanged.' The exchanges with Canada and 12

    European/Middle East countries are arranged through theIACE Association. Annual exchanges with nonmemberceuntries are negotiated bilaterally. Of the Pacific coun-tries invited to participate in the exchange last year, threeaccepted.Currently the length of the exchange is L9 days.Sponsoring organizations in each country provide theirvisitors with a variety of activities such as tours of AirForce installations, aerospace industries and museums,visits to airports and air traffic control facilities, orienta-tion flights in gliders and powered aircraft, and sight-seeing trips. Visitors usually stay in the homes of hostfamilies to enhance mutual understanding and cultural ex-change.FLIGHT TRAININGCivil Air Patrol allocated $28,000 in its fiscal year1982 budget to provide locally conducted solo flight train-ing and orientation Ilights for cadets. The funds provided53 solo flight scholarships to cadets in th e 52 CAP wingsand overseas units. Scholarships covered expenses ofground scbool and flight training Leading to solo qualifica-tion.

    All CAP cadets may qualify for a series of six3Dminute orientation flights. The program is funded andconducted at wing and unit levels, but the national treasuryprovides partial reimbursement for the first flight. Duringt982, the 52 wings and overseas units were partially reirn-bursed for the expense of providing over 2,600 cadets withtheir first flight experience through a locally conductedorientation flight program.Solo Flight.

    SEHIOR'MEMBER TRAIHIHGIn its 1946 Act to incorporate Civil Air Patrol,Congress declared that an objective of the corporationwould be "to provide aviation education and training,especially for its senior and cadet members," Civil AirPatrol attracts a diverse group of members with variededucation and skill levels which makes a strong and stan-dardized training program a basic necessity. Members aretrained to work with cadets and senior members, and inspecialties required for the emergency services mission.Members are also trained to accomplish the day-to-dayjobs in areas such as personnel, administration, logisticsand finance. Because of the volunteer nature of theorganization senior member training is a continuing pro-cess. The Division of Senior Training identifies trainingneeds and develops programs which enable seniormembers to more effectively accomplish the missions ofCivil Air Patrol, The division staff works with CAPmembers in the field at aU levels to develop curriculum forcourses [0 be conducted by CAP personnel, The CAPsenior training program is organized into five levels,

    LEVEL 1 - CAP ORIENTA TlON COURSE (MembersbipAward).The Level ICAP orientation course consists of afour-hour slide/tape presentation which introduces newmembers to the unique aspects of Civil Air Patrol. Thiscourse provides basic instruction in such areas as thehistory and organization of CAP, career development pro-grams, activities. CAP customs, courtesies and properwear of the CAP uniform.

    Outstanding Member, L1 Col Martha D. Rowland of the CAPSouthwest Reg(pn was selected as Civil Air Patrol's OutstandingSenior Member of the Year for 1982.She was presented the awardduring the CAP National Board Meeting InChicago by Air Force LtGan Charles G. Cleveland (raft), Commander of Air University andBrig Gen Johnnie Boyd, outgoing CAP National Commander.

(Photo by Rand McNatt)LEVEL n - TECHNICAL SPECIALTY TRAININGAND OFFICER DEVELOPMENT (Scnior Member Cer-tificate of Proficiency)

    The senior member begins to train in one or more ofthe CAP specialties and learns to perform unit functions.Study guides are provided and the trainee is encouraged tostudy CAP directives pertaining to the specialty. Oftennew members train under an experienced member in an on-the-job training situation.CAP Squadron Leadership Schools are conductedlocally to augment training in Level IIspecialties. In theseweekend schools, members are provided a workingknowledge of all specialties, and are given in-depth instruc-tion in the specialty of their choice. Upon completion of atechnician rating, the senior member is awarded theLeadership Award Ribbon. Members also learn to handlecertain CAP-unique leadership and counseling situations,and receive instruction on planning unit meetings and ac-tivities. Perhaps as important as the stated course objectiveis the opportunity for members from the samegeographical areas to get to know each other, which oftenresults in more cooperation between units in developingand conducting activities.In addition, senior members study a CAP OfficerCourse administered by the Extension Course Institute(EeI) at Gunter Air Force Station, Alabama, to helpprepare them to become effective officers in Civil AirPatrol.LEVEL m-COMMAND AND STAFF (Grover LoeningAerospace Award).

    Central to this training level is the Region Staff Col-lege. These one-week courses, conducted in each of theeight regions, provide training in communicative, leader-ship, and management skills to squadron level commandand staff officers. A total of 391 senior membersgraduated from region staff colleges in 1982. Successfulcompletion of Air University's Extension Course InstituteSquadron Officer School and study of four CAP pam-phlets summarizing basic leadership/management theoryand practice are required for completion of this level oftraining.16

    Mission Training Exercises. Emergency servicetraining and upgrading programs are conducted by eachCivil Air Patrol wing to improve both the skills of in-dividual members and the effectiveness of the organizationas a team. Each wing also conducts annual disaster reliefand search and rescue test exercises which are monitoredby Air Forceevaluators ..The tests are used to determinethe effectiveness of CAP wing training programs and wingcapability to respond and satisfactorily execute any mis-sion it may be called upon to perform. An important sidebenefit of test exercise is training gained through the op-portunity provided to practice mission skills under realisticconditions. Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA). FEMA is the central point of contact within thefederal government for emergency management, fromlocal disasters to nuclear war, and extends through alllevels of government and the private. sector. A revisedaerial radiological course and a new aerial damage assess-ment course are being developed by FEMA, which willgreatly enhance the CAP emergency services capability tosupport civil defense operations. Consideration is also be-ing given by FEMA to include CAP in future selected na-tional-level civil defense exercises. Communications Training. Annual communica-tions schools are conducted by the CAP Northeast Regionat Kutztown State College, Kutztown, Pennsylvania, andby the Great Lakes Region at Grissom AFB, Indiana. Theschools are open to senior and cadet members and providespecialized training in communications procedures andtechniques ttiat qualities attendees for CAP communica-HODS officer positions in their CAP units of assignment.

    The CAP chaplaincy. with nearly 1,000 men andwomen representing 125 religious denominations servirtgas CAP chaplains, is the largest volunteer chaplaincy in theworld. These clergy from the civilian sector play a spe-cialized and vital role in the religious life, morale, andmorals of the approximately 60,000 CivilAir Patrol cadetsand senior members. Each chaplain is carefully screenedfor professional competence and then must receive ec-clesiastical endorsement by his or her denomination. TheCAP chaplain force is further augmented by some 350visiting clergy (not members of Civil Ale Patrol) who con-duct the cadet moral leadership training program insquadrons that are without an appointed CAP chaplain.The ultimate goal of the moral leadership _program isto equip America's youth, tomorrow's leaders, with a deepsensitivity and strong commitment to moral, spiritual, andpatriotic values. By encouraging cadet participation incharacter, citizenship, and moral leadership discussions,the CAP chaplain helps prepare the cadet mentally andmorally to face the world of tomorrow.This year a giant stride was taken in defining thechaplain role and function in all of Civil Air Patrol's mls-sions: Emergency Services, Cadet Program, and Aero-space Education, with the completion of a basic trainingprogram for CAP chaplains. During 1982, CAP chaplainscontributed more than 162,000 man-hours to CAP, con-ducting "Values For Living" sessions, personal interviewsand counseling sessions, visitations to units and homes,conducting religious services and rites, and attending in-numberable other CAP activities, including Region andWing chaplain conferences at their own expense. As a keymember of the CAP unit commanders staff, the chaplainserves as a significant liaison between the CAP unit and themember's home, church, and community.Chaplain Award. Chaplain Henry E.

    Am CRAFT MODERNIZATIONThe Aircraft Modernization Program (AMP) isdesigned to update and upgrade the Civil Air Patrol cor-porate aircraft fleet. The CAP corporation purchases newor late model aircraft with funds generated from the sale ofolder, obsolete and expensive to operate aircraft. CAP alsoacquires excess Department of Defense aircraft forrehabilitation and assignment to CAP wings. Therehabilitation is financed through lhe sale of older CAPaircraft. in the past CAP has rehabilitated U-6 BeaversL-19 Bird Dogs, U-1OD Helio Couriers, U-3s and T-34s:but the T4tB is the only type aircraft presently availablefrom DOD excess. When a T41B is received from the Ar-my with either an unusable or very high-time engine, theengine is removed and a new 180 Hp engine is installed.
