Introduction
The duties of the pilot and RIO are necessarily
integrated. The performance of one crewmember contributes
to the performance of the other. Successful crew interaction
can provide cockpit synergy that significantly improves
mission success. However, a pilot/ RIO team that does not
interact successfully can be a major detriment to mission
success. In this chapter, specific responsibilities are delin_
eated for each phase of flight. Specific mission flightcrew
responsibilities are also delineated.
Pilot
The pilot is responsible for the preparation of required
charts, flight logs, and navigation computations including
fuel planning, checking weather and NOTAMS, and for filing
required flight plans.
RIO
The RIO is responsible for the preparation of charts,
flight logs, navigation computations including fuel planning,
checking NOTAMs, obtaining weather for filing purposes,
and completing required flight plans.
Pre-Flight
Pilot
The pilot is responsible for accepting and preflighting
the assigned aircraft and coordinating preflight operational
checks in accordance with this manual and appropriate
