• Instructors: may practice lead changes as desired 13 Fingertip: “Finger Four” 14 4-Ship Configurations Fingertip Fingertip Strong Left Strong Right Close Trail Echelon Diamond 15 FAST RULE ON CONFIGURATION CHANGES • Changes to flight configuration are executed from Fingertip/Finger Four position • If in other than Fingertip: • Lead will regroup in Fingertip before moving to a new configuration • Hand Signals/ Aircraft Signals/ Voice Calls • Exception is Moving to Extended Trail – Echelon to Close Trail is Standard – Close Trail to Extended Trail is an option » Must be well-briefed by Lead 16 PART II The Core Formation Events and Maneuvers 17 PART II - Format • Will discuss each maneuver in the normal flight sequence • Will cover • Position References • Visual Signals • Radio Calls • How to perform the maneuver • How Sport Class Tailors the procedures (where applicable) 18 Typical Training Profile • Formation Takeoff (Interval) • Takeoff Rejoin • Route Formation • Parade Formation • Wing-work (station-keeping) • Crossunders • Echelon turns • Pitch-out & Rejoins • Extended Trail • RTB • Recovery (overhead) 19 Flight Briefing • Most important part of the flight • Sets the tone for the whole flight • Lead will use the Sport Class Briefing Checklist • Brief the plan • Listen Up / Ask Questions • No one mans up without clear picture of expectations • Fly the plan 20 Mission Briefing: 7 step briefing format: Manual Appendix C • Time Hack • Establish Mission Objectives • Weather & Environmentals • Sequence of Events and standards to be used • Contingencies • Mission Specifics – Details on how to achieve the objectives. • Wrap Up & Final Questions 21 Briefing Highlight: Communications • Always brief a communication plan • Brief all frequencies if local flying • Initial check-in generally after engine start on Tac-1 • Frequency change protocol • Use of “Go”: Acknowledge in sequence (“check out”) • Use of “Push”: Switch without acknowledgment • Lead will check flight in on new frequency in either case • Sport Class Standard for FAST and PRS – Always use “GO” 22 Engine Start Hand Signals • “Thumbs up” passed up the line to Lead when ready to start (or as briefed) • Lead points skyward and rotates finger • Pass signal down line • Lead gives exaggerated “head nod” • Push start button when Lead’s chin hits chest 23 Taxi • Pull forward 5 feet when ready to taxi • Check In with Race Number • Not “2, 3, 4” (Tailored Ops) • Lead will call for taxi if tower in operation • Mirrors PRS procedures • Taxi In Sequence • Spacing: • In trail: 4 Ship Lengths • Staggered: 2 Ship Lengths • Tail Dragger: Extend & Weave as required. 24 Run-up • Position Aircraft to line up heads • May need to make “arc” in Run-up Area • Conduct Run-up • Check over aircraft to L & R • Pass Thumbs up from Back to Front • Look to aircraft behind when ready • This will be opposite when a Pace Plane is present • Thumbs up goes front to back with a Pace • Lead will switch flight to CTAF when thumbs up gets to him • Sport Class Standard for FAST/PRS: • No “auto switch” to CTAF/Race Control 25 Line Up Options 26 Tailored Line Up Procedures 27 Interval Takeoff • Lead call 60 kts • Racers roll in order when previous racer is 1000 ft down the runway • Takeoff on Hot side, abort to Cold side • Call the Abort • Call Cold • Last Aircraft call airborne 28 Rejoins After Interval Takeoff • Straight ahead or turning • Which side? • Typical FAST (note: Sport Class Tailored differently) • #2 always joins on inside of turn • #3 and #4 always join opposite #2 • Straight ahead – as briefed • Standard is #2 on left, #3 and #4 on right Tailored: ALL Rejoins in Sport Class FAST / PRS will be “EVERYONE JOINS TO THE OUTSIDE” • Rejoins in Part III of this Ground School 29 BREAK 30 Parade Station Keeping • Find “the bearing line” & stay on it • Scan and maintain sightlines / visual references • Wings level with lead • Constant Corrections: – Stick: slight finger pressure 1 – Throttle: “Controlled Aggression” • Don’t fixate – develop a scan 2 Example, RVs: • Primary reference provides RV Primary line of reference: “bearing” and “step down” Outboard aileron hinge on spinner • Secondary reference sets spacing Secondary reference: 1 Tip of opposite elevator behind the rudder 2 Station Keeping 101 • Establish & Maintain your Sightlines • Make constant, small corrections • Relax the “Death Grip” & “Wiggle Your Toes” • Generally correct position in a logical sequence: • Correct to the bearing line • Correct vertical stack / stepdown • Correct lateral spacing • Eventually corrections are 3D…but remember the basics 32 Station Keeping 101 • Recognition: Continuously and quickly correct back to THE LINE • Think: “small, timely corrections” • Anticipate, anticipate, anticipate • Use trim to your advantage • Correct Hand Position on stick/throttle • Oh yeah…Relax, Relax, Relax…Breath! 33 Parade Turns • For the Wingman, relative altitude and radius of turn are changing when rolling into/out of turns • Pitch, Bank and Power changes occur • Maintain Parade Sight Picture • Welded Wing • Turns away from Wing: • Add power & increase pitch (climb) • Turns toward Wing: • Decrease power & decrease pitch (descend) 34 Route Formation 2 – 4 ship widths…to 500 feet “Abeam to no further aft than the bearing line” Trend Note: When sent to route, move out, not aft 35 Route Formation • WHY ROUTE? • Checklists and “Ops Checks” • Better lookout • Long Cross Country flights to relax • Holding airborne during airshows • Signal • Radio Call • Tail Wag or Fishtail (side to side) • Wing Pilots move out to maintain lateral separation. • 2-4 ship lengths for checklists and frequency changes 36 Flying Route • Lead use moderate bank turns (60 degrees or less AOB) • Wingman on the inside of the turn: • Fly route welded wing references • Wingman on the outside of the turn: • Fly echelon references to avoid large power req. (Stack Level in turn away) • Do not “creep” back to fingertip (common error) or re-form unless directed by lead • Use good scan of lead when doing ops checks, to avoid unrecognized closure 37 Flying Route Keep your 2-4 ship interval until directed otherwise and don’t slide aft… 38 Cross-Under • Used to move aircraft from one side of Lead to the other side • Set up flight for pitch out maneuver • Get Wingman out of sun • Give Wingman a change on cross country trip 39 Cross-Under Signals Sport Class Standard is RADIO CALL. • Hand Signals • Cross-under #2 • Single, raised fist • Notify #3 first • Cross-under #3 & #4 • Fist held up & pumped twice • Aircraft Signals • Wing Dip • Dip Direction indicates which wingman moves 40 Cross-Under Execution Three part, primarily wings-level maneuver 1.

  • Coaching Tips and Drills
    Coaching Tips and Drills Overview The purpose of this manual is to provide ideas, drills and activities for the coach to use at practice to help the players enhance their skills for game day. Strategy • Decide what style of game you want to play and plan your plays accordingly. There is only so much you can teach the players in the time you have, so keeping to a reoccurring theme can make it easier to understand what you are asking your players to do. Example: Play for first downs, not touchdowns. This might be accomplished by using short passes and running plays. Hydration Tips • Pre-hydrate • Players should drink 16 oz of fluid first thing in the morning of a practice or game • Players should consume 8-16 oz of fluid one hour prior to the start of the practice or game • Players should consume 8-16 oz of fluid 20 minutes prior to the start of the practice or game • Hydrate • Players should have unlimited access to fluids (sports drinks and water) throughout the practice or game • Players should drink during the practice or game to minimize losses in body weight but should not over drink • All players should consume fluids during water breaks. Many players will say that they are not thirsty. However, in many cases, by the time they realize that they are thirsty they are already dehydrated or on their way to be dehydrated. Make sure all your players are getting the proper fluids Defensive Tips • Pulling the flag • Watch the ball carrier’s hips as opposed to his or her feet, or head • Stay in front of the ball carrier • Stay low and lunge at the flag • If you grab anything but the flag, let go immediately to avoid a penalty • Playing Zone Defense • Each defensive back is responsible for an area as opposed to a player • This will enable you them to keep an eye on the receiver and the quarterback at the same time • As receivers come through your area, try to anticipate where the QB wants to throw the ball.

  • Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy
    Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy A Major Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering by _____________________________________________________________ Liam Koenen _____________________________________________________________ Camden Lariviere April 28th, 2016 Approved By: Prof. Christopher A. Brown, Advisor _____________________________________________________________ 1 Abstract The purpose of this MQP was to design an effective play-calling strategy for a football game. An Axiomatic Design approach was used to establish a list of functional requirements and corresponding design parameters and functional metrics. The two axioms to maintain independence and minimize information content were used to generate a final design in the form of a football play card. The primary focus was to develop a successful play-calling strategy that could be consistently repeatable by any user, while also being adaptable over time. Testing of the design solution was conducted using a statistical-based computer simulator. 2 Acknowledgements We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the following people, as they were influential in the successful completion of our project. We would like to thank Professor Christopher A. Brown for his advice and guidance throughout the yearlong project and Richard Henley for sharing his intellect and thought process about Axiomatic Design and the role

  • Dictionary of American Football Terms by John T. Reed
    Dictionary of American football terms by John T. Reed Copyright by John T. Reed Order Form | Coaching home page Ever since I first got into football coaching, I have wanted a dictionary of football terms. There are some in the backs of some older books, but they are never comprehensive. So I am going to create one here on this Web page. I will try to add a definition a day because it’s a massive project and pays me nothing. Another problem is that football is a Tower of Babel in many respects. Some words mean different things at different teams. For example, many coaches feel they can pick their own name for some positions, most commonly linebackers. They call them “stud” or “monster” or “rover” and so forth. Often a term is only used at one team. This is dumb and I wish they would stop doing it, but I am not going to hold my breath. So in that sense, this will have to be a multi-language dictionary. In addition to clarifying the meaning of various football terms, this will also help coaches spell and punctuate them correctly. Embarrassingly for guys who call themselves “educators,” many coaches do not know how to spell or punctuate their own specialty’s terminology. Football coaches as a group have a public image of being ignorant or even morons. Unfortunately, there is too much truth to that image. Coaches who object to that image need to read through this dictionary to make sure they are not contributing to it. Among the most common and devastating to coaches’ reputation as intelligent people mistakes are the many malapropisms in the profession.
