a. Collision Avoidance:
(1) 500’ bubble around all aircraft at all times
(2) Always assume the other aircraft does not see you
(3) Head-on pass: Maintain the established trend; where no
trend exists, give way to the right to create a left-to-left pass
turns)
(4) Broadcast your own intentions
b. Converging flight paths:
(1) Nose high goes high
(2) Nose low has collision avoidance responsibility
(3) Broadcast your own intentions
(4) Never intentionally maneuver to lose sight (no blind lead
(5) Up-sun aircraft has responsibility for collision avoidance
(6) If down-sun aircraft lost sight, transmit “Callsign,
blind” and turn away from predicted collision bearing
(7) If lost sight, transmit “Blind” and remain predictable.
Other aircraft shall acknowledge with “visual, continue” or “knock-itoff”
as appropriate, providing directive comm as necessary for safety
of flight and ownship altitude in thousands of feet. Once sight is
regained, transmit “visual”.
(8) A/S < 85 kts (nose high/decelerating) call “Knock-it-off,
ballistic”. If A/S is 85 kts (nose low accelerating) requires call
“85 knots, continue”.
(9) No head-on missile employment inside 9000’ (within 20˚ of
the nose)
(10) No forward quarter gun attacks (within 45˚ of the nose)
(11) Break off all gun attacks at 1,000’
