Procedures:

The primary officer for each shift will take the helm unless otherwise engaged or unable to perform their duties. The standby 1 officer shall remain on post in the relief area during the shift. When the active helm officer requires temporary relief (not to exceed five minutes) the standby 1 officer shall fill in. Should the active helm officer require relief due to injury or posting to other duties, the standby 1 officer shall fill in until such time as the secondary officer can be summoned. The secondary officer, though off-duty, must be prepared to take active helm duties within five minutes of notification.

 

Under yellow alert conditions, the schedule will be at the discretion of the CFCO or AFCO. Red alert shall require that either the CFCO or AFCO be on active helm duty or immediate standby as flight regulations and personnel permit.

 

Should the CFCO be required for away teams or other bridge operations functions, the Alternate Duty Schedule shall be placed into effect.

 

In the event that any flight control/navigation officer shall be placed on the inactive schedule, due to inpacitation or other reason, personnel placed on the emergency roster by the CFCO from other departments shall be promoted to the active schedule as available from the discretion of the corresponding department heads.

 

Under normal ship conditions, the active helm officer shall be granted a thirty minute break in the middle third of their shift, where the standby 1 officer shall fill in and the standby 2 officer shall take post in the relief area for the duration of the break. Yellow alert conditions shall be at the discretion of the CFCO or AFCO. Under red alert conditions, breaks shall only be granted if the maximum of eight unbroken hours of flight time has been reached.

 

Training:

All flight control officers shall meet Starfleet mandated flight time requirements to maintain their Akira-Class qualification. The CFCO shall schedule simulation time for those officers who cannot meet the requirments through active helm duty shifts. All FCO's shall also maintain minimum flight time requirements for the Captain's Yacht and minimum Class A-2 vessels (including the Normandy, Justinian, and Adventure classes in inventory).

 

If desired, FCO's can cross-train and maintain qualifications for all Guinevere, Lancelot and Ethan Allen small combat craft. Qualification and classification must be done through the CAG's office. Flight censures earned in either the FCO/Nav or Fighter Squadron

will

cross department lines.
