Even if ACAS has always responded under very short notice in critical situation to authorities and navies requests for ULBs Search at sea, the company is not organized to mobilize its experts for such operations. Moreover, Investigation Authorities have expressed interest to contractualise black boxes relocation services to a highly specialized and independent service company. As a consequence MANOPI* has been created to perform FDR and VDR pre- localization (Detector-1000), accurate positioning (GIB-SAR buoys) systems and training to exercises. * MANOPI and ACSA companies belong to French private ALCEN's group. © MANOPI, 2012. 3 MANOPI PRESENTATION PLAN 1/ INTRODUCTION 2/ ALERTMENT - ACCIDENTS TYPE 3/ TRADITIONAL SAR MEANS 4/ FLYING TEAM CONCEPT 5/ ACSA EQUIPMENT SUITE 6/ ACCIDENT TRACK RECORDS 7/ NEXT STEP - RECOVERY ISSUES © MANOPI, 2012 Confidentiel Industrie 4 MANOPI READ IN THE PRESS "Parts of aircraft might have drifted south following sea currents at a speed of 0.7 knots.

They are specially design for relocation purposes. ULBs characteristics are: - Frequency : 37.5 kHz +/- 1kHz, - Transmit level : 160 dB, - Repetition rate : ~1 Hz +/- 10%, - Autonomy : 30 days, - Collapsing depth : 6000 m, Additional difficulties - 2 similar acoustic sources close by, - Sea noise level could be above signal level - Ray bending (Thermocline layer) © MANOPI, 2012. 19 MANOPI TRADITIONAL SAR MEANS (Acoustic Relocation) • Underwater directional finders • Accuracy +/- 100 m Operate in calm weather • Towed pinger locators • 30 Tons to air lift + Supply ship • Acoustic homing devices • Requires ROV and DP Ship © MANOPI, 2012. 20 MANOPI MANOPI’s FLYING TEAM CONCEPT • MANOPI has gained a strong background in aircrafts, helicopters, weapons relocation and assistance to distressed submarines in numerous complex situations. • MANOPI improved during critical situations the GIB-SAR design to finally set-up the Flying Team concept as a SAR methodology for fast and accurate Black Boxes localization and recovery. © MANOPI, 2012. 21 MANOPI MANOPI's FLYING TEAM CONCEPT What have we learned from previous experiences ? Efficiency is linked to sequencing operations step by step: 1/ Understand accident environment 2/ Locate hay stack 3/ Locate needles 4/ Determine wreck depth 5/ Select adequate rescue means 6/ Fast recovery by homing directly onto target using longitude and latitude coordinates Needles metric positioning accuracy highly reduces recovery operations’ time and costs ! © MANOPI, 2012. 22 MANOPI FLYING TEAM OPERATIONAL APPROACH The Flying Team is composed of 3 experts, well trained and continuously kept at the highest level of expertise to conduct Black Boxes localization and recovery operations, using ACSA's suite of equipment and proceeding step by step in a very secure way. - Team is flown to site on commercial airlines together with search equipment - On site mobilization of a vessel of opportunity - Transit to accident site, even in bad weather - Relocate hay stack and needles - Measure wreck depth Team is ready to be flown 7/7 day to any place worldwide. © MANOPI, 2012. 23 MANOPI ACSA SYSTEMS Continental Shelf Deep Water Ultra Deep Water (300 m) (2 000 m) (6 000 m) Find Hay DETECTORDETECTOR-1000 -1000 Stack On going R&D Program* Locate Needles Unveiled early in 2013 GIB-SAR Guide Recovery * Following mean AF-447 accident © MANOPI, 2012 Confidentiel Industrie 24 MANOPI DETECTOR-1000 - OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE 1.

Each buoy measures the time of arrival (TOA*) of the signals and transmits this information together with its own D-GPS position to the Control and Display console installed on board the support ship using a local radio network. The ULB acoustic signal propagation time is directly converted to ULB/buoy pseudo distance, knowing the sound velocity, then the position of the acoustic source is given by triangulation. The positions of the buoys are known in WGS-84 coordinates and so is the ULBs position. * TOA is measured with a 10-4 accuracy (+/- 15 cm on distance measurements). © MANOPI, 2012. 27 MANOPI GIB-SAR BUOYS - LOCALIZATION PRINCIPLE The ACSA's GIB-SAR system allows a 1 meter ULB's positioning accuracy in coastal and offshore waters up to 2.000 meters. It is also used for guidance of the recovery mean. For example, it only took 15 minutes, during a critical operation, in more than 1.000 meters, for a ROV to join an helicopter wreck as positioned by the GIB-SAR system.

LOOKOUT! Introduction Welcome to the March issue of Lookout! – the first for 2009. We’ve had a challenging start to the year, with a larger-than-usual number of fatalities, accidents and near misses in the recreational boating sector. This issue features a guest editorial from Bruce Reid, CEO of Coastguard, who gives us his perspective on the holiday season and the importance of heeding basic safety messages. Among other things Bruce’s editorial reinforces the need to carry effective emergency communication devices and lifejackets. The fatalities discussed in two of the stories in this edition of Lookout! could both have been prevented by the wearing of lifejackets. This doesn’t mean those in the commercial sector can be complacent about safety. The commercial incidents featured in this issue, although not fatal, could have been much worse – and all could have been prevented.

  • Personnel Recovery
    Joint Publication 3-50 Personnel Recovery 20 December 2011 PREFACE 1. Scope This publication provides doctrine for the preparation, planning, execution, and adaptation of personnel recovery (PR) by the Armed Forces of the United States during joint and multinational operations. 2. Purpose This publication has been prepared under the direction of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS). It sets forth joint doctrine to govern the activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the United States in operations and provides doctrine for conduct of PR. It also addresses military coordination with other US Government departments and agencies during PR and for US military involvement in multinational PR. It provides military guidance for the exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force commanders (JFCs) and prescribes joint doctrine for operations and training. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from organizing the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the overall objective. 3. Application a. Joint doctrine established in this publication applies to the Joint Staff, commanders of combatant commands, subunified commands, joint task forces, subordinate components of these commands, the Services, and defense agencies in support of joint operations. b. The guidance in this publication is authoritative; as such, this doctrine will be followed except when, in the judgment of the commander, exceptional circumstances dictate otherwise. If conflicts arise between the contents of this publication and the contents of Service publications, this publication will take precedence unless the CJCS, normally in coordination with the other members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has provided more current and specific guidance.
