Special Considerations. The factors mentioned in b (2) (a)and (b) above are variable. Commanders of supporting aviationunits provide specific data for each type aircraft and operation.d. Reference. For specific capabilities of current types of Armyaircraft, see TM 57-210.18. Night and Low Visibility Operationsa. Operation Requisites. Normally, transport aircraft can operate when(1) The ceiling permits safe flying above the highest terrainto be traversed.(2) There is enough forward visibility for the pilot to seeobstacles in time to avoid them when flying at reducedspeeds.(3) There is enough visibility for the pilot to distinguishprominent landmarks.6. Advantages of Night Operations. Darkness offers concealment for the transport aircraft from enemy visual observation andprotection from enemy aircraft.c. Disadvantages of Night Operations.(1) The necessity for more elaborate control measures andfor caution on the part of pilots and passengers slowsdown night operations. Operations may be further prolonged when it becomes necessary to fly the aircraft singlyrather than in a compact formation.AGO 2294B 1 1

Aircraft AvailabilityAircraft availability is an important consideration in airmobileoperations. It is directly influenced by the adequacy and efficiencyof maintenance and supply activities, as well as the distance ofthe operating units from their support units. Given time and support to prepare for a particular operation, transport aviation unitscan reach 100 percent availability for short periods. During periods of sustained operations, airplane units normally have a greaterpercentage of aircraft availability than helicopter units.12 AGO 2294B
