CAPR 60-3 Update 17 August 2009

CAP EMERGENCY SERVICES TRAINING AND OPERATIONAL MISSIONS
This regulation prescribes concepts, policies, and standards that govern all Civil Air Patrol (CAP) supervisory, ground, and flight personnel in the training, qualification, and execution of CAP operational missions. Practices, procedures, and standards prescribed in this regulation are mandatory and may not be supplemented or changed locally without the prior approval of NHQ CAP/DO. Additional guidance is found in CAPR 60-1, CAP Flight Management; CAPR 60-5, Critical Incident Stress Management, CAPR 60-6, CAP Counterdrug Operations, and other directives governing specific CAP policies. Forward all suggestions for modification and improvement of the program through channels to NHQ CAP/DO. Note: This regulation is revised in its entirety.
SUMMARY OF CHANGES.
The entire regulation is completely revised, to eliminate information duplicated in other CAP regulations, improve readability, and incorporate interim change letters. Though significant changes have been incorporated, this regulation is only an interim measure to bridge the gap until CAPR 60-3 and CAPR 60-6 are combined into one regulation that encompasses guidance for all operational missions. This revised regulation is 14 pages shorter than the previous version. To accomplish that, some of the sections from the previous CAPR 60-3 are now posted online on the NHQ CAP/DOS website. We will continue to seek ways to shorten the combined 60-3/60-6 regulation as it is being drafted to follow the standard that was established with the latest revision to CAPR 60-1.
IMPORTANT:This new version contains a completely revised CAP Form 104 for pilots and crew members. The new Form 104 consists of 4 pages with an accompaning instruction sheet and can be downloaded on eServices thru the National Web Site. It is dated Aug 09 meaning it can be used immediately.
The current 104 becomes obsolete on 30 Sept 09.
