Member Duty Roles

Member Duty Roles

This is orientation, not a qualification record or assignment roster.

Operations manager

Coordinates the field operating picture under current procedures: briefings, sequencing, runway/launch configuration, staffing, threat response, and pause/stop decisions.

CFI-G / instructor

Provides authorized instruction, endorsements, student supervision, transition training, and conservative judgment. The instructor decides what is appropriate for the learner and conditions.

Tow pilot

Operates within aircraft, regulatory, club, and personal limits; coordinates with the launch team; and protects safe climb, release, and recovery.

Wing runner / launch crew

Supports staging and launch using approved signals and positive coordination. A trained wing runner is an active safety barrier, not merely someone holding a wing.

Flight recorder / line support

Maintains required records, supports sequencing, relays status accurately, and keeps attention on the active runway environment.

Student/member

Arrives prepared, participates in ground work, protects aircraft, speaks up about uncertainty, and stays engaged after their own flight.

Anyone should call attention to an unsafe condition. Stop, clarify, and rebuild shared understanding.
