The last Green Flag West 16-04 rotation was a successful and challenging mission for
SP Green Flag participants. GFW SP pilots had to make numerous difficult decisions
based on aircraft equipment failures and adverse weather conditions. They exercised
superb decision making skills based on their vast experience and extensive knowledge.
The FAA and CAP regulations state that the pilot in command has ultimate authority
concerning operation of the aircraft. The PIC also has final authority on whether to
execute the flight based on current weather conditions.
The decision to go/no go will always be decided by the pilot in command of the aircraft.
The SP Green Flag West command staff will always support the pilot in command’s
decision as long as it is within the scope of the regulations.
The decision to conduct the flight will be made based on the latest weather forecast.
The entire crew will show up for the morning brief to evaluate the current weather
conditions. The go/no go decision will be made after the morning mission briefing.
The pilot in command will be the final authority on whether to cancel the flight.
