PRECAUTIONS DURING ELECTION FLYING

Flying during elections is a very challenging task and as such, all the professionals associated with the election Flying need to exercise extreme caution. Many Aircraft and Helicopters will be crisscrossing to ferry the political parties all over election states. Lack of coordination among the operators, pilots, aircraft and helicopters, inadequate Air Traffic Control, hurriedly prepared makeshift dusty helipads, poor crowd control, inadequate security, commercial, political parties and VIP pressures, adverse Weather conditions, heavy quantum of flying, large number of landings, pilot and Crew members fatigue, inadequate rest and recreation facilities and rushed up maintenance are some of the serious hazards during election flying.

Hence, it is essential to have a high level of preparations, planning, and coordination to ensure that the Election flying is conducted safely and efficiently.

Although most of the pilots and other crew members are highly competent, knowledgeable and safety-minded professionals and have been involved in Election Flying earlier, yet it is essential to refresh our memory so that we are better prepared to meet the challenges posed during election flying. Prepare well for the hectic flying and maintenance activity keeping in mind the daily maintenance requirements and periodic inspections.

The following precautions are recommended: –

1. On reaching your launching base, kindly liaise with the airport authorities and the officer in charge of Security, firefighting, refuelling and ground handling agencies.
2. It is essential to conduct a coordination meeting among all the operators operating in the area, officials from Airport, Security, firefighting, ground handling and hospitals before the commencement of the operations.
3. It may be a difficult task but make efforts to know the following days flying program of various helicopters, and aircraft operating in the area and ascertain changes in the program before the commencement of flying.
4. Organize and attend preflight briefings with other operators and get to know their program and undertake necessary coordination.
5. All the pilots must be familiar with the frequency to be used within the control zone and in the area of operations.
6. Heights/Altitude to be maintained during en route flying both inbound and outbound must be finalized during the coordination meeting and ensure that all the pilots operating in the area are familiar with the same and adhere to it strictly.
7. Remember that there will be a large number of Aircraft and Helicopters flying in the congested airspace. Hence, it is essential to keep a good lookout, listening watch and make blind calls at regular intervals to avoid any midair collision. Give a call before Take off and Landing at helipads regardless of the availability of ground control.
8. Kindly keep in mind that there might be aircraft and helicopters entering your area of operations from bases other than the base of your operations and you may not know about their movement. Therefore, it is all the more essential to listen out on RT and make blind calls at regular intervals.
9. Prepare and plan well for the hectic flying Activity.
10. Ensure that you have the latest Jeppesson, ILS, VOR charts, maps of the entire area of operations and GPS coordinates of the airports, and helipads.
11. Ensure that the GPS is serviceable and reliable and it is good practice to carry a handheld GPS which can come in handy in the event of the main GPS becoming unserviceable.
12. Get to know about the weather Hazards in the area of your operations. Ensure that you get proper Weather briefing from the Met Department, IMD and other websites and closely monitor the changes in weather conditions. Dust storms and thunderstorms are some of the weather hazards during the forthcoming electioneering months.
13. Before undertaking the Flight, ensure that you have the correct coordinates of the Helipad/Airport, confirm the same from Google Earth and study the enroute terrain and obstructions around the helipad. Check, recheck and double-check the coordinates and make sure that you feed them correctly on your GPS.
14. Have proper liaison with the ground personnel manning the helipad and brief them to ensure that the helipad surface is hard, level and free of dust. Sprinkling of the water close to the landing and take-off time is an essential requirement.
15. Security and crowd control is a major area of concern at the Helipads and the ground personnel manning the helipads should be briefed about them with emphasis.
16. During landing and take-off, keep a good lookout for loose flying objects like plastic bags, lungis, dhotis, head covers, ropes and strings etc. Don’t take these aspects lightly since there have been a number of accidents due to these hazards.
17. Remember only VFR operations are permitted to and from the helipads. Day flying is 20 minutes before sunrise and 20 minutes after sunset. Always plan to land at an airfield 0:30 hrs before sunset just to cater for any last-minute delays so that you land at least by 20 mts after sunset.
18. Fuel planning is very crucial and ensures that your refuelling party is properly briefed and their movement is well coordinated and monitored. Handheld GPS with the refuelling/ground party can be very useful in confirming and updating the GPS coordinates. Make use of it.
19. Take due precautions before and during refuelling. Remember fuel is life.
20. Have an umbrella, drinking water, soft drinks, reading material and light snacks on board which may come in handy at helipads while waiting.
21. Pilot and Maintenance personnel fatigue is a major concern during the hectic election flying day in and day out. Remember that stressed pilots and maintenance crew may lead to compromise on the safety of the operations Proper sleep at the Hotel/Guest house, adequate rest, refreshment facilities at helipads, and help of a dispatcher/coordinator/Ops manager in undertaking various coordination activities for the operations, Maintenance and provisioning of reliable laptops, internet and reliable communication facilities for the pilots and ground personnel can be of great help in reducing pilot fatigue.
22. Kindly do not exceed FDTL, FTL, and do not get pressured to undertake flying in case of unfavorable weather conditions or in violation of DGCA rules, and regulations.
23. Election Commission and DGCA officials are expected to be very proactive in carrying out surprise and random checks and any violation will be viewed very seriously. Kindly be extra careful. Remember that you are under close scrutiny during election flying.
24. Ensure that no unauthorized items are carried on board the aircraft or Helicopter. Carry out proper checks of baggage and look out for hidden dangerous goods.
25. Firearms and large cash unless specifically authorized are not permitted to be carried on board the aircraft or helicopter. Kindly check on the amount of cash that can be carried from the Election Officials in your area.
26. Please do not succumb to commercial, political or VIP pressures and undertake flying in violation of the rules and regulations. Remember the past accidents and consequent loss of lives and machines which resulted due to the pilots succumbing to these pressures.
27. Politely but firmly, advise the concerned people if a sortie is likely to violate the rules, and regulations.
28. Kindly carry Air Safety Circular 09/2013 on board the helicopter which permits precautionary landing at any suitable place or at an airfield even after its watch hours in case you encounter adverse weather and are unable to proceed to your destination or alternate.
29. Ensure that you have the Emergency Response Plan of your company, and telephone numbers of the Officials from DGCA Air Safety, Police, District Administration, ATC and hospitals in the area of your operations.
30. Proper Load and trim sheet is to be prepared before each sortie and records maintained. Do not overload or stress your machines.
31. Maintain a proper record of your flying and no efforts should be made to alter the records to be within FDTL or FTL limits since if it comes to the notice of the regulator or the election officials, you can be in serious trouble.
32. Please know about the Prohibited, Restricted and Danger areas for flying and do not violate them.
33. Written Permission should be obtained for landing clearance at Helipads and a copy of the same should be available with the pilot during flying. No verbal clearance should be accepted.
34. Ensure proper briefing of passengers which is a legal requirement. Make sure that no passengers or the onlookers get into the tail rotor. Brief Ground support personnel, Copilot, AME, Technician, etc. for securing the tail rotor.
35. Always maintain your route safety altitude. While flying below one thousand feet in the plains, keep a very sharp lookout for pylons, towers, HT Cables, ropeways and tall structures.
36. With the onset of the summer season, bird activity in the altitude bands where helicopters usually fly (around 2000 Ft AGL), increases.  Birds are serious hazards and maintain a sharp lookout for them.
37. In some states, the clearance for landing permission etc. is given in the local language. Kindly ensure that you have interpreter services in case the pilots are not familiar with the local language.
38. Pilots must have good rapport and interaction with the maintenance and ground support personnel.
39. Remember that your maintenance and ground support personnel will also be fatigued and may miss out on certain checks. In addition, commercial/task pressures may tempt them to take shortcuts. Be aware of this fact and be meticulous in your checks and follow the SOPs religiously.
40. Maintenance personnel must take special care of the maintenance activities since machines are subjected to intensive flying and dusty environments.
41. Do not ignore minor leaks, fluctuations, and vibrations and never exceed the limitations laid down. Flying partially serviceable machines is to be avoided as far as possible.

Precautions During Summer and Pre Monsoon Flying

Summer and Pre-Monsoon Season is already here and with it the associated hazards for flying during this season.

Civil Aviation fleet is fortunate to have large percentage of highly professional, experienced and knowledgeable Civil and Ex-Military Pilots. However, it is essential to refresh the memory of the Operators, Pilots, Engineers, technicians and other associated personnel about the hazards associated with Summer, Pre monsoon operations and the precautions which need to be taken to ensure safe and efficient conduct of operations.

Following Precautions Need To Be Observed During Summer, Pre Monsoon Months:-

• Dust storms, Thunderstorms, Hail Storms, Lightening, Wind Shear are quite common during this period. Norwesters/ Kaal Baisakhi which affect areas between Kolkata and Patna with the core being in the areas around Chhota Nagpur Hills, Ranchi, Kalaikunda Barrackpore and Bhuvneshwar etc. are very dangerous for flying. Keeping yourself updated about the weather particularly Thunderstorms, Norwesters is very essential and monitoring these closely will go a long way in avoiding unfortunate accidents.
• Thorough Met Briefing, its professional interpretation and proper route planning becomes very essential during Summer, Pre Monsoon months due to unexpected sudden changes in weather conditions.
• Lightening is a serious hazard during pre-monsoon months. Avoid thunderstorm areas particularly Norwesters. Confirm and ensure proper bonding of the Aircraft/ Helicopter.
• Flying in Rajasthan and adjoining areas due to very high temperatures, severe turbulence and poor visibility over prolonged periods due to dust storms, is most demanding in summer months. Take due precautions.
• Very widespread poor visibility conditions over a prolonged duration due to dust storms particularly in Northern India must be taken into consideration while planning flights. Diversionary airports/ helipads must be planned with due care.
• Hailstorms during the Summer, Pre Monsoon season are quite common and can cause serious damage to aircraft/helicopters while flying as well as when parked in the open. It should be ensured that weather radars are fully serviceable and pilots have adequate knowledge to intelligent use weather radars for avoiding the hazardous areas.
• Hill flying requires special attention particularly after around 1200 Hrs. during summer months. Severe turbulence, updrafts on the windward side of the hills and downdrafts on the leeward side, and valley winds can pose serious hazards and pilots should factor in these aspects while operating in hilly terrain.
• Turbulent weather causing updrafts and downdrafts can add to the fatigue factor to aircraft/helicopters, its crew and discomfort to passengers. Plan your flight altitude keeping these aspects in mind.
• Bird activity in the morning, evening hours and during day time at altitudes above 2000 ft. (Birds also like cool higher altitudes during summer months) demands alertness on the part of pilots.
• Proper parking and lashing of the aircraft/helicopters is much more essential during summer months since sudden occurrence of thunderstorms which are typical during this period, can catch you by surprise.
• Fuel consumption increases during summer months and fuel planning should be done carefully.
• Ensure that the aircraft/helicopter is properly bonded during refueling operations. Lack of proper bonding has caused some explosions of aircraft and helicopters all over the world.
• Boiling of battery acids due to high temperatures, degradation of seals and other such materials which may lead to leakage of oil/lubricants etc. should be kept in mind.
• Adverse effects of high temperatures and dust during summer months require parking of aircraft/helicopters inside hangars with proper covers.
• Aircraft/Helicopter metal parts become very hot during summers and due precautions must be taken by aircrew as well as ground crew while working/operating the aircraft/helicopter. The use of proper gloves is recommended.
• Frequent and close monitoring of the parameters of the Engine, MGB, TGB and avionics equipment on board the aircraft/ helicopter is recommended since prevailing high temperatures may cause adverse effects. Degradation of electronic equipment is also quite likely during the summer months.
• Density altitude is considerably high during summer months. Power available from the engines also is degraded to a certain extent due to high temperatures. Hence, the load-carrying capability of the aircraft/ helicopter is reduced and should be given due consideration while planning the flight. Landing and Take-off distances increase considerably due to the high-density altitude obtained in summer months and should be factored during operations.
• Ensure that there are no loose articles in the vicinity of the aircraft/helicopter that can fly and damage the aircraft/helicopter due to strong wind conditions experienced during thunderstorms.
• Do not park aircraft/helicopters in the close vicinity of trees, poles, buildings and other obstructions that may get uprooted during storms and damage the aircraft/ helicopter.
• Ensure that your aircraft/helicopter is not parked in areas that have dry grass fields in the vicinity since chances of fire to dry grass, and vegetation are very high during summer months and strong winds may blow the fire towards the aircraft/helicopter.
• Ensure that the helipads are sprayed with water to prevent dust from blowing due to downwash. Brief the concerned staff to ensure water spray just 15 Mts to half an hour before take-off or landing of the helicopter since the surface gets dried very fast and chances of dust being kicked up are very high. Many accidents have taken place due to dust bowls during the landing of Helicopters as the pilots get disorientated due to a lack of visual references in a dust bowl.
• Hot and humid climatic conditions add to the fatigue factor of the air as well as ground crew. This aspect must be kept in mind. Adequate rest and sleep in a cool comfortable place, commuting in AC vehicles, plenty of fluid intakes, and moderate consumption of alcoholic beverages for those who like their chhota peg are some of the suggestions for consideration.
• Always keep an adequate supply of water and cold beverages on board the aircraft/helicopter to cater for unforeseen contingencies.
• Ensure that the passengers are properly briefed with particular emphasis on turbulence and check the compliance of the use of seat belts during flight.
• Brief the ground liaison staff or concerned staff to make suitable arrangements for crew rest and recuperation particularly for operations from helipads.
