New training available
Equal Opportunity, Operational Risk Management, and Aircraft Ground Handling Training are three new training requirements available online at NHQ for seniors and cadets. You will be required to login for each training course and once the training is completed, your records on eServices will update automatically.

Aircraft Ground Handling Video
As you know, CAP requires all members who regularly come in contact with aircraft or supervise air operations to view a 13 minute aircraft ground handling training video and take a short test. We have been advised that some members are having trouble finding the video in eServices. Thanks to the efforts of Joe Hall, John Sanderson and Pete Kalisky, all members of the NHQ staff, it is now easier to link to the Ground Handling video.
A link has been placed on the National website Safety page and Stan/Eval page, and has been imbedded in the notification of the viewing requirement letter on the ICL page (30 Mar 09). Clicking on this link will take the member to the eServices log-in page. Once the eServices user ID and password have been entered, the member will be taken directly to the home page for the video.
Please ensure the widest dissemination of this information to those members within your command who need to complete this training.

Commemorative Air Force AIRSHO 2010 |
The Midland Commemorative Air Force AIRSHO 2010 commenced on Friday evening and Group I units answered the call.
Cadets and seniors from Amarillo, Lubbock, San Angelo units TX-023 and TX-806, and Grape Creek assisted the Midland Squadron cadets and seniors in providing security and safety for patrons at the show. Personnel were assigned to specific "flights" and were deployed throughout the fighter ramp and front of the "Fifi" hangar to ensure patrons were able to get "up close and personal" with the aircraft, without putting themselves in danger or damaging the aircraft. Additionally, when one of the aircraft began their "run-up" to depart the area and perform in the show, the Group I units provided sanitation of the fighter ramp to allow the departing aircraft to safely and quickly reach the runways or return to their parking place.
Cadets and seniors spent Friday and Saturday evening billeted at the "Agri-Empressa" building, a short distance from the airfield.
Images can be seen on the "Midland Squadron" page of this website.
