![]() ![]() Might exacerbate the usual FUD in the ICP. ![]() But it might get real awkward if we mix folks from diffrent Wings on a big mission, and we aren't all using the same system. I guess our ICP might be converting our system to a customer's when reporting, or if it's imaging, the point lat/long is universal and not an issue. You'd think a checkride would concentrate on more real world scenarios, but what the heck, the checkride is funded. I guess if I lost my panel mount GPS, iPad/Foreflight, and VOR/DME electrons (or couldn't receive) we could soldier on with Mark 1 eyeball. cb-secgrids.xml Sectional Charts with CAP/SAR Grid cb-tacgrids.xml Terminal Area Charts with CAP/SAR Grid cb-helgrids.xml World Aeronautical Charts with CAP/SAR Grid The gridded configuration files are not included in the zip file. It is good fun, and if the grid is on a tac chart, pretty easy. The Form 91 states " Locate the grid (or starting point)", but every two years, we go out and fly at least part of grid using pilotage, because "it's good practice". My Wing uses CAP grids, but I'm not sure why, except maybe because we always have? Our Stan Eval also insists on a "pilotage" grid search on a Form 91, no electronic aids to be used. The CAP grid systems, old and new, are CAP's last grasp at living in its own world. For airspace deconfliction lat/lon is listed as the only system. ![]() The Land SAR and Catastrophic SAR Addendums to the NSP list for land SAR responders USNG first, lat/lon second, and for aeronautical responders the two systems are swapped. Many missions are "local" in nature, and local procedures may be highly efficient and effective in the management of SAR resources within a defined geographical boundary. CAP does not preclude the use of local procedures where they are deemed necessary or more practicable. The National SAR Supplement (NSP) says this about the old CAP grid system (no mention of the new system) in Appendix E, Gridding:Į.1 The standard sectional aeronautical chart and the following grid identifications system is used by CAP when coordinating missions with the AFRCC and other agencies. The National Search and Rescue Committee (NSARC) now lists GARS only as a system for area organization and accountability. ![]() GARS was developed as an airspace deconfliction system, and a few years ago AFRCC proposed replacing both CAP grid systems with it. In decades of doing this, in different parts of the country, and having been on national SAR committees, the only groups using the two CAP grid systems are AFRCC and CAP. This effort was then featured on the TV series The Aviators.There are no standard grid systems in the SAR industry.
