From time
to time there will be new Special Operations flights available to our
pilots. Some will take a bit of time to accomplish, and some are just
short fun flights. Look them over and see which ones you want to fly.
Special Operations flights are available to Captains and above, with
one exception - The Blue Sky Club is reserved for ATP Captains
Only. It is important for Air Northwest
pilots to fly Special Operations flights both to help their Hub bring
in revenue to Air Northwest and to help support our relief efforts around
the world.
Flight
Reporting
You can
use the hotlink at the top of this page to send a Special Operations
Flight report. The report will go to BOTH Stan Fitzgerald, and
Andrew Cook. Stan will record your flight in his Special
Operations excel file. (this is for awarding pins).
The
Special Operations flight report does NOT go to your hub commander, so
you will need to file a REGULAR
flight report so that both you and your hub get credit for the time
flown. You will find "Special Ops" on the
drop down menu for the Airline Used and the aircraft you used will be
on the Drop down menu for "aircraft". If you have anything
you need to say about your flight, add it in the comments section of the
Flight Report.
One
EXCEPTION to this is "Disaster Relief Flights" You will find a special
report link on each of the Disaster Relief Flights webpages.
The
Special Operations flight report has a drop down menu that lists all the
Special Operations flights. If you don't find the Special
Operations flight that you just completed in the drop down menu, please
send an email to Stan, and he will add that to the drop down. If your confused about any
of this just drop Stan and email and let him know what you did.
Special Operations Pins are awarded for every 10 Special Operations
Flights.
The Special Operations division of Air Northwest is managed by the
Director of Special Operations. This position is held by
Stan
Fitzgerald at the
present time.
The Current Special Operations Flights have been updated to x-plane
Version 9.31 by Stan
Fitzgerald, and there should be no problems with using version up to 9.50. If you have questions
regarding anything about this division, please do a post in the Forums! - There is a special section in the
Forums for Special Operations.
Or
you may contact Stan directly via email.
