(!J~ **ENIOR ACTIVITIESNew CAP/FAA Upgrading Program

The Federal Aviation Agencycoop-erated with CAP by conducting two pilotprograms in August and September of1964 for CAP senior members at theFAA Academy in Oklahoma City. Theoverall purpose of the programs wasto upgrade quality of general aviation.The FAA provided the instructional fa-cility andthe academic andflight instruc-tors. CAP provided the eight T-34aircraft used in the programs and paidfor all operating expenses for the T-34's.CAP members paid for their food andlodging while at ten din g the 2-weekprograms.

The first of these programs wasthe CAP/FAA Instructor Pilot Refresherand Upgrading Program. Its purpose wasto increase the proficiency of selectedmembers who possessed FAA FlightInstructor Certificates. This increasedproficiency is now being passed on toother CAP pilots through the CAP PilotStandardization and Check-out Program.Two classes of 10 students each wereconducted. In addition to the academicprogram, CAP pilots received some 15hours of T-34 flying time with highlyqualified FAAinstructors.

The second program 'was theCAP/FAA Aircraft Airworthiness pro-gram conducted for 10 students. Itspurpose was to teach the latest main-tenance procedures. Although the T-34was the vehicle used for conducting thetraining, the principles learned appliedto all aircraft.

The programs were a success andCAP is looking forward to similar pro-grams in the future.Search and Rescue Training + EffectivenessTesting = Professionalism

Civil Air Patrol pilots flew 10,770sorties and a total of 18,607 hours onsearch and rescue missions in 1964.In 1963, they flew 10,256 sorties and18,775 total hours. The SARobjectives"located" were nearly the same forboth years. CAP was credited for flying63%of all sorties and 64%of all flyinghours expended in the search andrescueeffort in the Continental United Statesand Alaska during 1964.

Civil Defense

CAP received national recognitionfor its Civil Defense training manualfrom the Director of Civil Defense,Department of the Army. Each OCDRegion was advised toinform every State

Civil Defense Director of the manual'spreparation and other actions being takenby CAP to support Civil Defense activ-ities.

CAP participated in the 22 StateDefense Airlift Exercise "Survival Eastand South 1964." It is noteworthy thatof the 9,000 participants, 7,172 wereCAP members; and of the 1,400 aircraft,950 aircraft were CAP associated. CAPaircraft flew 1,825 sorties in supportof the exercise.

In addition to the participation byCAP aircraft and aircrews, CAP pro-vided the primary communications sys-tem for control of the exercise. TheCAP communications network functionedmore effectively thanduring the exercisein 1963 as evidenced by the Reportof SARDAExercise "Survival East andSouth 1964." This vast improvementwas attri buted to intensive training,effective planning, and a more profes-sional approach to com mun i cat ion sproblems.Effectiveness Tests

sure the effectiveness of the CAPwings'emergency services capability. A totalof 26,891 CAP members participatedand CAP aircraft flew7,603hours duringthe one- to two-day tests.Res~rve Officer Participation

. During 1964, 345reservists partici-pated in the Civil Air Patrol Programon a point-gaining basis for a totalof 25,262 hours. Our USAF-CAPliaisonofficers in the field affirm that thereserve personnel can be evaluated asoutstanding as instructors and advisersto the CAP. As instructors, the reser-vists have been particularly effective inadding quality and prestige to the CadetAerospace Education Program. Reserveofficer personnel have also made signif-icant contributions to summer encamp-ments and aerospace educationworkshops. The attitude, relation, anddegree of cooperation ofboththeCAPandReserve are excellent. More emphasisis being placed upon recruitment ofadditional reservists for the CAP pro-gram, with a goal of a reservist foreach unit.

CommunicationsIn 1964, Civil Air Patrol madepositive progress in communicationsmanagement. The major pro bIemsexperienced in 1964 were the limitednumber of frequencies available and anincreased demand on the radio net.These problems were reduced byconcen-trated emphasis on operator training,frequency and overall radio net manage-ment. As a result, increased pro-

fessionalism among CAP communi-cators, more effective use of the radionet, plus a decrease (to a negligibleIeve I) in frequency and proceduralviolations were achieved. At the endof 1964, the CAP radio net totaled14,910 stations:

(j~**CADET ACTIVITIES

A continually growing enrollmentconstitutes the best possible evidenceof the acceptance and popularity ofCivil Air Patrol's program for youthin 1964. Reversing a downward trendin youth membership prevailing in thelate 1950's, the CAP cadet membershiphas continued to climb since 1961. Thisyear the increase of 3,926, althoughlessthan the growth in 1963, neverthelessbrought the cadet membership total to

10

15/28

52,977--41,846 boys and 11,131 girls.Along with this encouraging trend hasbeen a continued development and refin-ing of the cadet program which led toa newprogram instituted in 1964. Cadetspecial activities undoubtedly fosteredmost of the popularity of the CadetProgram. In 1964, eight areas of specialactivity offered tangible benefits to eachcadet. As always, the International AirCadet Exchange stood foremost in therole of the most "prized" special activ-ity, and competition was unusually keenamong cadets for the honor andprivilegeof being selected to participate. Asynopsis of the lACE and the otherspecial activities follows:The CAP International Air Cadet Exchange(lACE)

A grand total of 373 foreign andCAP cadets participated in our 1964exchange program. Twenty-two foreigncountries were represented from thefollowing areas: Europe, Near East,South America, Central America, andCanada.All visiting cadets arrived in NewYork City on 23 July for a 4-day visit.As guests of CAP, they were housed

in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel andtreatedto a tour ofNewYorkCity, whichincludeda scenic cruise around Manhattan Island

and a 1-day visit to the World's Fair.Further, a military ball was held atthe Waldorf-Astoria in their honor.On July 28, the cadets were flownto their host wings for a 10-day visitas guests of local CAP units. Withinthe various states, the foreign visitorsbecame acquainted with American life

first hand by spending part of their timein private homes, visiting local andhistorical points of interest, flying inCAP light aircraft and gliders, andparticipating in recreational activities.They also met officials of city and stategovernment. On August 7, they wereflown to Washington, D. C., for a 4-daytour of that city; the highlight was avisit to the White House. Meanwhile,our CAP cadets were enjoying similarvisits in the countries hosting them.

Summer EncampmentsIn 1964, 35Air Force bases providedfacilities for 7,787cadets and863seniorsat 38 encampments from 9 to 14 daysduration. CAP encampment sites wereprogramed five years in advance byUSAF. Most of the airlift was furnishedby the Air Force Reserve.

Interregional ExchangesTwo girl cadets per wing wereexchanged between regions or between

wings within the same region for variousperiods of time during the summermonths. These trips permitted cadetsto participate in an aerospace-orientedprogram to familiarize them with aero-space fa c i lit i e s in other states orsections of the country and to learnmore about activities in other CAPwings.

Federal Aviation Agency Orientation ProgramThe Fed era 1Av i a t ion Age n c y

Academy at Will Rogers Field, OklahomaCity, Oklahoma, conducted an orientationp rogr am for 52 cadets July 5 - 11. Thecadets received instruction in groundcontrol approach, control tower pro-cedures, weather, air traffic control,and many other aspects of the FAAsystem.Jet Orientation Course

The Jet Orientation Course is theoldest of the four incentive programs

conducted on Air Force Bases by AirForce personnel for CAP cadets. Itwas held at Perrin AFB, Texas, July19 - 25. The base provided academic andorientation instruction for 52 honorcadets who were given flight instructionin the T-33 jet trainer. All cadetsflew three missions in the aIrcraftunder the guidance of Air Force flightinstructors.

Property Acquired

The year 1964 saw an upsurge; inthe dollar valueofDepartment ofDefensesurplus and excess property donated toCAP. The total amounted to$14,552,910(acquisition cost). The primary reasonfor the large inc rea s e over 1963($5,67l,115) was due to the acquisitionof approximately seventy-eight T-34Beech trainer-type aircraft. Civil AirPatrol obtained con sid era b1Ymorevehicles from military excess than inthe past. The number one equippingproblem in CAPcontinues tobeobtainingserviceable communications equipment.

Aircraft Picture

CAP corporate aircraft fleet showeda small increase in 1964 owing to theacquisition of seventy-eight T-34 typeaircraft. CAP closed out 1964 with atotal of 864 aircraft versus a total of825 for 1963. The prime concernregarding the aircraft inventory is thatthe majority of the aircraft are over20 years old. Hen c e, it becomesincreasingly more difficult to maintainaircraft in-commission.
