M034 requires that the Virtual Military Operator create and maintain an internal training program that ensures member pilots: Understand POSCON Policies and authorizations/limitations contained within approved operations specifications Understand ICAO ATC procedures and communications, especially those that relate to military operations Can adequately operate military aircraft in all flight phases and operations File ICAO flight plans as they relate to military operations on POSCON M034 requires the Virtual Military Operator to provide URLs to their training program(s). If those training programs require authentication to access, the Virtual Military Operator must provide the Manager of AOC with a username and password to access those resources. In the preamble, include the following text: "The certificate holder's training program meets the standards of POSCON and is authorized per this operation specification."

M003 authorizes a Virtual Military Operator to use any make, model, and series (M/M/S) of airplanes/aircraft within the arsenal of the military authorities identified in M001. The make, model, and series selected must correlate to an approved ICAO aircraft code contained within the Positive Control Network's ICAO Data - Aircraft database. In contrast to M001, M003 does not identify the Virtual Military Operator's overall authority to conduct a particular kind of operation. Instead, it represents POSCON's approval of the Virtual Military Operator's use of a particular airplane/aircraft in carrying out the kinds of operations that are authorized. The rest of the set of Ops Specs are then put into place to authorize the Virtual Military Operator to conduct specific types of operations in accordance with the authorizations and airplanes/aircraft identified in M001 and M003.

Unless otherwise defined in these operations specifications, all words, phrases, definitions, and abbreviations have identical meanings to those used in Title 32 and 48 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and Title 49 United States Code as cited in Public Law 103-272, as amended. Additionally, the definitions listed below are applicable to operations conducted in accordance with these operations specifications. This certificate holder has listed no additional terms. _______________________________________ 1. Issued by the Positive Control Network, Operations Department. 2.

M002 includes definitions of words or phrases specific to the Virtual Military Operator. These definitions are not found in the regulations applicable to the certificate holder, the Policies Glossary, or the Virtual Operators Glossary and should enhance understandings between the Positive Control Network and the Virtual Military Operator. The following text shall be included in the preamble: "Unless otherwise defined in these operations specifications, all words, phrases, definitions, and abbreviations have identical meanings to those used in <insert applicable regulatory compliance>, as amended. Additionally, the definitions listed below are applicable to operations conducted in accordance with these operations specifications." All definitions, abbreviations, acronyms, and terms that are used by the Virtual Military Operator shall be established in a easy to read format. Any addition, revision, removal, or change of terminology shall be agreed upon by both the Virtual Military Operator's Point of Contact and the Manager of Air Operating Certificates.

M001 identifies the Ops Specs holder. The name must be the full name of the Virtual Military Operator.

M001 restricts the Virtual Military Operator from conducting military operations outside of airspace controlled by the military authority named in M001 without a specific exemption. M001 also authorizes the use of specific ICAO airline codes and the associated radio telephony.

For all clearances, fly the lateral published course unless directed otherwise. When vectored off STAR – altitude constraints and speed restrictions associated with bypassed waypoints are canceled. Ensure ATC assigns an altitude. ICAO does not require pilots or ATC to state the STAR name.

Contributors must use this section to communicate which sections or documents are ready for the publishers to review. EBCI/CRL : sections remolded EBBR/BRU : Brussels Airport

Contributors must use this section to communicate with both publishers and other contributors which sections/documents are being worked on so that others will not take on the task simultaneously. Special vectoring and "Land after" phraseology Faro (LPFR)

The following sections or documents need a little more work before they will be approved and published by the POSCON staff: EBCI / CRL - Brussels South Charleroi Airport (Charleroi, Hainaut) There are many instances of non-standard formatting - please review EGPH for an example of how one should look. EGCC / MAN - Manchester Airport (Manchester, UK) EGKK / LGW - Gatwick Airport (London, UK) EGLL / LHR - Heathrow Airport (London, UK) LIPZ / VCE - Tessera (Venice, Italy) EHAM / AMS - Schiphol (Amsterdam, NL) LPFR / FAO - Faro Airport (Faro, PT) Still needs to work - please review EGPH for an example of how one should look. VHHH / HKG - Hong Kong Intl., HK CYVR / YVR - Vancouver Intl. (Vancouver, BC) CYYZ / YYZ - Toronto Pearson Intl. (Toronto, ON) KJFK / JFK - John F. Kennedy Intl.

This document will act as a way for the publishers (Directors) and contributors to communicate with each other regarding the development of the Pilot Resources repository. It will also act as a way that other contributors can see what sections/documents are actively being worked on. If a contributor wants a new document created, simply add a section to this document requesting that the staff create the new document.

The following outlines the current tasks that need to be completed within the repository: Convert existing Airport Briefings to the new wiki format. NOTE: Any user with the proper access can complete the tasks listed above.

Members who contribute to the Pilot Resources Repository can earn points. Those users who make meaningful contributions to an existing section or add a new section will get a minimum of 25 Quality Points added to their rank per contribution. "Meaningful" is a subjective term and will be determined on a case by case basis by the POSCON Directors. Those users who create full documents with little help from other users will get a minimum of 150 Quality Points added to their rank per document created. If the POSCON staff has to make major edits to your contribution, it will void the points earning potential. Basically, keep your grammar tight and your information correct!

Content that users contribute to this repository must comply with the POSCON Content Guidelines and all other POSCON Policies. Things to keep in mind: Do not post content that you cannot call your own work. Do not post copyrighted material. Once you post your work on POSCON resources, your intellectual property rights will be relinquished to the POSCON, Inc. In other words, if you one day get upset and ask us to remove your work, we are going to tell you to go pound sand. Any abusers of the system (e.g. trolling of the wiki) will be permanently banned from POSCON.

This is a repository for pilot users to reference when operating into and out of certain regions of the world. Unlike other repositories that require staff access to edit (e.g. Policies, Support, etc.), the Pilot Resources repository is open for all members to contribute to. All POSCON members have the same access to view the documents within this repository, but some roles have more access to edit/modify than others. Here is an overview of the access: For now now, everyone has access to everything but "Overview" and "Map" POSCON Members Can view all documents within the repository Can edit all Reference Guides Can edit any document in "General" other than "Overview" and "Map" POSCON Controllers Can view all documents within the repository Can edit both Airport Briefing sections and Reference Guides Can edit any document in "General" other than "Overview" and "Map" All new documents within this repository have to be started by a staff member (Manager or Director).
