Those with access ought to read the SIR. Nothing we haven't done before in there, but a lot of good stuff that we ought to be thinking about.

Which prompts a question for first tour guys: do you review SIR's regularly at your squadrons?

 

[BigIron]

I'd love to review these things, but I'm really out of pocket here on the disassociated tour. They aren't kidding when they say "disassociated."

Could we find SIRs in Safety/NATOPS? (TRACOM)

Yes. When I was ASO, I would cover an SIR or HAZREP just about every AOM. Big community SIRs I'd print out and have available to read in Safety.

To piggyback (yeah, yeah, yeah) on this, I'd also recommend to anyone that flies 60s to read HS-2s mishap report.

I just read that one. It def makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck.

Not as much as HSC-23's Class A from about 2yrs ago.

As a Sierra guy, I concur. No information, no answers, just 4 fellow aviators hitting the water in a bird they said had ZERO problems. Talk about concerning. At least with other SIRs there is usually a prime contributing factor and a walk away message.

 

[S.O.B.]

The SIR should definitely be read by anyone returning to flying after a disassociated tour. It doesn't matter how good you were as a JP if you haven't flown in several years you need to hit the FRS humble and with an open mind.

^ and that is a smart read between the lines.

Which "this" are you referring to? The SIR or the article you posted?

I was referring to the SIR; I don't recommend the safety O briefing the ready room on the Corpus Christi Caller Times article.

Reading platform specific SIR's will help to understand the common pitfalls of your platform (common EPs, if there is such a thing). I just finished reading our SIR book and now I have a better understanding of what might happen.

^^ I agree 100%. This one is probably applicable to all platforms.

Yeah, that's partly why I asked. I also wasn't sure to which SIR you were referring to, the HM one or one of the -60 ones that the others mentioned.
