    I plan on flying in the formation at Oshkosh. Paperwork, chutes , Insurance, fast card are all in order. My question is if my son, who hold a private license, can be in the backseat to shoot photos and use his 20/10 eyes to spot traffic for me.

    Pretty sure the answer is your son will not be permitted to fly in your back seat during show formations.

    I for one am VERY interested in what the reply to this question will be, seeing that the Experimental Exhibition Category itself says that no one is allowed to fly in such an aircraft unless they are categorized as a "Required Crew Member". Thus... If he can not fly in there for the formation.. The question would be "why not"? If someone is foolish enough to say: "Because he is not a Required Crew Member", then that opens Pandora's Box as to just what a Required Crew Member really is, and that FOR SURE is NEVER going to be that nice young babe you met last night that you promised to take for a ride.... Is it? Personally... I would answer it this way: If the freaking Blue Angels can take any Tom/Dick or Harry up for a ride in their two seat F-18, including their participation in formation flight, I do believe Mr. Wasson's Private Pilot Son can sit in the backseat of the aircraft and do anything he likes other than operate the flight controls of the aircraft while in formation flight. Answering it any other way than that requires an explanation... And boy OH BOY.....I do not think ANYONE wants to go there, but hey, I've been wrong before. Mark Bitterlich N50YK (As in: "Back Seats?

    Ron, In WAVERED airspace - the answer is no. During the arrival show into Oshkosh - he can ride in the back, as this arrival is NOT during wavered airspace. You can talk directly to the FAA, and ask for a waver during a show.. You can guess how that will go... We will be asking the FAA's permission on Wed to allow additional crew for the big mass formation for 4 planes - mission safety being the reason, we HOPE they will grant these. To your point, because we will have >50 planes in the air, I am asking for a spotter in the backseat of the Flight Leads. Mark - no the blue's don't take riders in waivered airspace.. :) before and after, but not during.. So, just to be clear, your son is ok for the arrival show on Monday ( we will depart from West Bend ) , not during the week.. And of course, he can sit in the back if groups go up before and after the waivered airspace is up..

    Ok Thanks for the info. I will watch this one from the ground for a change. Hearing 50 Yak's in formation is much better than flying in it and only seeing your leader. Must agree with you about the FAA being not about safety but hard and fast rules. On Jul 21, 2008, at 6:12 PM, David McGirt wrote: > > Ron, > > In WAVERED airspace - the answer is no.

    Ah... "The Infamous Wavered Airspace Clause" David, it is a moot point, but Airshow Wavered Space is really not much different than Aerobatic Practice or Aerobatic Competion Airspace. Most of the same rules are indeed wavered. As it turns out, I am the signatory on some Wavered Airspace myself. No where in any of the paperwork that I am sitting here looking at right now says anything about not allowing a person in the backseat to ride along inside of that wavered airspace in an aerobatic aircraft. But... This is of course not an AIRSHOW wavered airspace. So.... It must be something special that applies to Air Shows only where you have to ask permission to have someone else in the aircraft while flying in wavered airspace. Could you possibly quote that to me so as to educate my less than bright rear end? I'd really like to read where it says that. Mark Bitterlich AKA: "WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN BACK SEAT BADGES" p.s. What do you call the co-pilot in a B-17 that is flying in Wavered Airspace? A required crew member? What do you call Ron's son flying in the backseat of a YAK-52? Something other than a required crew member? If the latter, how can be fly in there legally EVER? In ANY kind of airspace? If he is a required crew member outside of wavered airspace, how all of a sudden is he NOT a required crew member IN wavered airspace. Does the Mission Commander of a C-130 have to ask the FAA for permission for all his crew when flying in wavered airspace? Ah... That would be no. Ya gotta love these interesting questions. -----Original Message----- From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of David McGirt Sent: Monday, July 21, 2008 7:12 PM Subject: Re: Yak-List: Required crewmember Ron, In WAVERED airspace - the answer is no.

    Subject: Re: Required crewmember
    The FAA's guide line on "crew" in Yaks, CJ-6, T-34, T-6, BT-13 etc. etc. etc. have been that all formation aircraft will have only - repeat only - FAST rated pilots on board in wavered airspace. This could be a new FAST pilot with either a Lead or Check pilot as GIB for airshow orientation. A new lead with a Lead or Check pilot as airshow lead orientation. A mass lead with a lead or check pilot as airshow lead orientation Or a mass lead with FAST rated pilot (Lead or Check pilot) as GIB as formation safety pilot. Each and every such flight - at each and every performance, is cleared individually by the FAA. Its done in person, and orally at the briefing. You can not blow smoke up their ass, claiming a private pilot or passenger as a required crew member for "safety". After OSH, I will be making a special trip to Thunder Over Michigan to fly the B-24 in the show (wavered airspace) simply because I happened to be the only B-24 pilot with the Collings Foundation with a FAST card. I will have only crew on board - me, co-pilot (not FAST rated), and the flight mechanic - all REQUIRED crew. No VIPs, not the boss's daughter-in-law, not my kids or grand kids, no reporters nor news camera men, ETC ETC. Jim "Pappy" Goolsby **************Get fantasy football with free live scoring.

    Hi Ron, I hope you take the chance to fly in the shows, you will enjoy them. We would love the help of your son on the ground as well. The formations are made to be easy for any formation rated pilot - if you are comfortable in a 4-ship, you will enjoy the shows.

    That is a fair request, I will see if I can get a copy of the waiver for Oshkosh.. I will tell you those are the words that come out of the mouth of the Airboss, and the FAA guy that is in the briefing - but to your point, it can not hurt to find the words.. I am sure as hell not going to arm wrestle your big ol self over it..

    From: David McGirt <david@mcgirt.net>
    > REDSTAR PILOTS ASSOCIATION CJ-6 50TH ANNIVERSARY The EAA and the organizers of Air venture 2008 have provided The RPA with a unique opportunity to showcase our aircraft, our pilots and our =B3Culture of Excellence=B2 throughout the week at Oshkosh. The centerpiece of our efforts will be the 50 aircraft mass formation fly-over. While safety is our primar y mission, it is critically important for the RPA participants to exceed the standards of performance seen in others. This has been an collaboration which has required great effort to complete. Each participant should become familiar with it prior to arrival at West Bend or Oshkosh. It is a living document and some changes may be made after arrival in order to adapt to field conditions, weather or EAA Ai r Boss requirements. The Power Point presentation and the briefing video will be distributed to the Regional Directors and posted on the website after Air Venture 2008. This will become the standard for future events.

    You said: "The FAA's guide line on "crew" in Yaks, CJ-6, T-34, T-6, BT-13 etc. etc. etc. have been that all formation aircraft will have only - repeat only - FAST rated pilots on board in wavered airspace" May I have a copy of, or a reference to that FAA document please? Next, you point out that your crew members in the B-24 are not FAST certified. Have you read the published FAA requirements of who is allowed to fly in an Experimental Exhibition Aircraft? Not just Pilot... But "FLY INSIDE OF". Usually contained in the Operating Limitations Section. Just curious.

This could be a new FAST pilot with either a Lead or Check pilot as GIB for airshow orientation. A new lead with a Lead or Check pilot as airshow lead orientation. A mass lead with a lead or check pilot as airshow lead orientation Or a mass lead with FAST rated pilot (Lead or Check pilot) as GIB as formation safety pilot. Each and every such flight - at each and every performance, is cleared individually by the FAA. Its done in person, and orally at the briefing. You can not blow smoke up their ass, claiming a private pilot or passenger as a required crew member for "safety". After OSH, I will be making a special trip to Thunder Over Michigan to fly the B-24 in the show (wavered airspace) simply because I happened to be the only B-24 pilot with the Collings Foundation with a FAST card. I will have only crew on board - me, co-pilot (not FAST rated), and the flight mechanic - all REQUIRED crew.

    Subject: Required crewmember
    From: "Bitterlich, Mark G CIV Det Cherry Point, MALS-14 64E" <mark.bitterlich@navy.mil>
    AIR BOSS..... A I R B O S S !!!!!!! AHA... Now you see, to be clear that is a totally different situation, and it honestly is where I was heading for with all of this. The AIR BOSS has totally free latitude to specify any darn thing he wants. He can prohibit passengers, he can specify FAST pilots only (like Pappy was referring to), and the list goes on and on. It is also true that the FAA will BACK UP just about anything the AIR BOSS says. That is because the AIR BOSS is allowed to add anything he darn well wants to in order to INCREASE SAFETY IN WAVERED AIRSPACE, and as such .... It could be easily argued that allowing ANY kind of passenger in a formation flight is increasing the level of danger. The FAA will indeed back that up. The AIR BOSS could legally prohibit Pilot passengers FAST QUALIFIED OR NOT! The big difference here is that the FAA did not CREATE such a rule, and the FAA does not endorse or recognize FAST (sorry Pappy, that's the way it is). The United States Federal Aviation Administration is very very careful not to recognize or require certification from any other agency other than itself. To do so opens them up for huge liability and prejudicial concerns and they are not stupid. I have no doubt David that those are the words that came out of the mouth of the Air Boss and he is King. His word is indeed law and I would not argue with the guy. Again, the FAA WILL INDEED BACK HIM UP!!! It may be a small point to make, but it is a point that is important when you dig into the depths of rulebooks. You see it *IS* the FAA who writes the operating limitations, and many many YAK owners will see the words in those limitations that say that only recognized and required aircrew may fly in their Experimental Exhibition aircraft AT ALL. Read those words carefully.... "AT ALL". Thus for the FAA to allow Ron's son to ARRIVE in the aircraft, and then turn right around and say he is "Not Required Aircrew" to fly in the wavered airspace would be contradicting themselves. The FAA does NOT like to do that. So... In the end, Ron's son not being allowed to fly in the wavered airspace is not due to being, or not being.... a Required Crew Member and meeting FAA requirements, it is a matter of meeting the AIR BOSS's rules and regs and that is a whole different kettle of fish, and is as it should be.

    Subject: Required crewmember
    From: "John Cox" <johnwcox@pacificnw.com>
    During a Waivered period, no Blue Angel has ever had civvies in the back. The only Required Crewmembers are those job descriptions listed in the Operating Limitations and required all the time. The EAA takes a similar view to the FAA Airshow Waivered Airspace requirements with their warbirds. In close formation work, if the pilot needs additional eyes, it might be a great time to consider an eye examination prior to launch. Lots of experience with Warbird waivered airspace leads me to say "Nice Try". However I did see a wife who was a certified military medical flight officer get the coveted approval not long ago. Will love to watch this unfold.

Thus... If he can not fly in there for the formation.. The question would be "why not"? If someone is foolish enough to say: "Because he is not a Required Crew Member", then that opens Pandora's Box as to just what a Required Crew Member really is, and that FOR SURE is NEVER going to be that nice young babe you met last night that you promised to take for a ride.... Is it? Personally... I would answer it this way: If the freaking Blue Angels can take any Tom/Dick or Harry up for a ride in their two seat F-18, including their participation in formation flight, I do believe Mr. Wasson's Private Pilot Son can sit in the backseat of the aircraft and do anything he likes other than operate the flight controls of the aircraft while in formation flight. Answering it any other way than that requires an explanation... And boy OH BOY.....I do not think ANYONE wants to go there, but hey, I've been wrong before. Mark Bitterlich N50YK (As in: "Back Seats?

    Subject: Re: Required crewmember
    It was only recently that the regs were bent to allow us to arrive at the airport and do the arrival airshow with our backseaters. It was a matter of necessity to accomodate the formation groups and it saves them money for just paying for fuel in the EAA's airspace. You will have NO luck getting a backseater approved unless you are a first timer at OSH. An OSH experienced pilot who is FAST Rated and competent in the type aircraft will be approved and encouraged to accompany you.

    Subject: Re: Required crewmember
    Thanks for all the discussion on the gib topic. My son wants his fast card but needs to get his commercial / instrument / multi / c.f.i. done in the next 12 months first . Did not mean to piss anyone off but would like to be with my son to explain the formation than leave him on the ground. After 21,000 hours of military , corporate, and airline I just don't have any urgent formation squares I need filling personally. 12 more years of airline flying makes flying the CJ a great relief from the corporate madness. Never been to OSH so there is much to see with him and soak up some of his newcomer awe to refresh mine. ron
