Total fl ight safety is easy to achieve: “Just don’t fl y.”

Director Flight Safety Colonel Steve Charpentier and Chief Warrant Officer Rene Labrie visited 14 Wing Greenwood February 18 through 20 to present their annual briefings on inci-dents, safety and success.

“Flight safety is all about controlling risk,” Charpentier said. “When we’re in the-atre, we take risk. That’s the mission, it’s what the boss wants. Our role is to fi nd all the risks associated with the mission and reduce them.”

About 300 people across the Royal Canadian Air Force wok in flight safety, from investigation to education to promotion. Right now, the focus is on fatigue manage-ment, looking at the effects of long fl ights, shift work and time zone adjustments; and drugs, monitoring for

Safe flying a team effort

everything from Benadryl to alcohol to illegal drugs.

“When you come to work, am I safe? Am I rested? Do I have the right attitude? If you can check any of these as a ‘no,’ take action,” Char-pentier said.

There are two open in-vestigations from 14 Wing Greenwood incidents, in-cluding a search and rescue hoist failure in December and a sheared bolt found on a Cormorant helicopter in November. The goal is to fi nd our what happened, and how to prevent it from happening again – not lay blame.

“Make sure you share fl ight safety incidents and lessons” said Labrie. “There is no shame – it’s all about learning.

“Safety, safety, safety. If you pay lip service to safety, bad things happen. It’s not OK to cut corners to make the next mission.”

Labrie showed slides of

trends in fl ight safety, indi-cating recent years’ drop-ping on – but, over the lon-ger term, showing a steady increase in issues.

“That’s concerning. We know you’re under the mi-croscope, and there are er-

rors related to a lack of skill with a younger, less experi-enced Air Force. Decisions, perception and supervision; documentation is our bread and butter, the only way we know the work has been done properly.”

14 Wing Greenwood Wing Operations Lieutenant-Colo-nel Scott Latter directly cited the “team approach” to fl ight safety. Last week, a snow removal crew picked up on a fl ight safety issue on the airfi eld.

“It’s good to see a mix of people at these briefi ngs – ground crew, air crew, civilians. The wing com-mander is very concerned with fl ight safety, and it’s a team approach to success. We’re all involved.”

The Flight Safety (FS) coin is used to recognize a notable contribution to the FS Program by an individual’s particular actions or noteworthy dedication and conveys Directorate of Flight Safety appreciation to a worthy recipient that exemplifies the values of the FS program.

La sécurité absolue des opérations aériennes n’est pas diffi cile à atteindre. « Il suffi t de ne pas voler. »

Le directeur de la sé-curité des vols, le colo-nel Steve Charpentier et l’adjudant-chef Rene Labrie, également de la Direction de la sécurité des vols, étaient en visite à la 14e Escadre Green-wood du 18 au 20 février, pour présenter leurs séances d’information annuelles sur les incidents, la sécurité et les réussites.

« La sécurité des opéra-tions aériennes est une ques-tion de contrôle des risques, explique le Col Charpentier. Dans le théâtre, nous prenons des risques. Ça fait partie de la mission, c’est ce que veut le patron. Notre rôle consiste à trouver tous les risques associés à la mission et à les réduire. »

Dans l’Aviation royale ca-nadienne, environ 300 per-sonnes travaillent dans le

La sécurité des opérations aériennes, un effort d’équipe

domaine de la sécurité des opérations aériennes, que ce soit les enquêtes, l’éducation ou la promotion. À l’heure actuel le, les dossiers à l’étude sont la gestion de la fatigue, notamment les ef-fets des longs vols, le travail par quarts et l’ajustement aux fuseaux horaires, ainsi que la consommation de drogues, en étudiant toutes les substances, du Benadryl, à l’alcool, en passant par les drogues illicites.

« En arrivant au travail, il faut se demander : est-ce que je suis capable d’assurer la sécurité? Suis-je reposé? Ai-je la bonne attitude? Si vous répondez non à l’une de ces questions, il faut agir », explique le Col Charpentier.

Il y a deux enquêtes en cours concernant des in-cidents survenus à la 14e Escadre Greenwood, y com-pris un treuil de recherche et sauvetage défectueux en décembre, et un boulon ci-saillé dans un hélicoptère Cormorant en novembre. L’objectif des enquêtes est

de déterminer ce qui s’est produit et d’éviter que ça se produise de nouveau, non de jeter le blâme.

« Assurez-vous de trans-mettre les incidents et les leçons apprises en matière de sécur i té des opéra-tions aériennes, indique l’Adjuc Labrie. Il n’y a pas de honte. L’important, c’est d’apprendre. »

« La sécurité, d’abord et avant tout. Lorsqu’on ne se soucie de la sécurité qu’en paroles, on risque gros. C’est inacceptable de prendre des raccourcis en matière de sécurité pour arriver à la prochaine mission. »

L’Adjuc Labrie a montré des diapositives sur les tendances en matière d’opérations aéri-ennes illustrant une baisse au cours des dernières années, mais indiquant une tendance à la hausse à long terme pour l’augmentation continue des problèmes.

« C’est inquiétant. Nous sommes conscients que vos faits et gestes sont scrutés à la loupe et qu’il y a des

erreurs attribuables à un manque de compétences lorsqu’on sait que la Force aérienne est jeune et manque d’expérience. Les décisions, la perception et la supervi-sion; la documentation est au cœur de nos activités, c’est la seule façon de savoir que les choses ont été faites selon les règles. »

L e l i e u t e n a n t - c o l o -nel Scott Latter, des Opéra-tions de la 14e Escadre, a cité directement l’esprit d’équipe pour la sécurité des opéra-tions aériennes. La semaine dernière, une équipe de dé-neigement a remarqué un problème de sécurité des opérations aériennes sur la piste.

« C’est bien de voir di-verses personnes lors de ces réunions, des mem-bres d’équipages au sol, d’équipages aériens et des civils. Le commandant de l’Escadre est fort préoccupé par la sécurité des opérations aériennes et il faut faire front commun pour réussir. Nous devons tous participer. »

May 30, 1978 – “that’s the day I signed the line,” says Master Warrant Offi cer John Arsenault.

“I took a loss in pay, I had a car to cover and I didn’t know if I’d make it – but it was a great decision.”

Arsenault retired from the Canadian Armed Forces Feb-ruary 19, 36 years and nine months after making that decision.

“I’ll be really honest – I don’t know why I joined the military,” he says.

There was no family back-ground and, even though he went to school on Nova Scotia’s Eastern Shore and Halifax Navy and Air Force bases were all around him, “It wasn’t really something I was familiar with. I worked in retail for a bit out in Sas-katoon, then I came back and worked at the car wash at the autoport in Eastern Passage. I was in limbo.”

A few friends joined the forces, and he did, too, think-ing he was heading into an accounting fi eld.

“I was seven weeks into basic training at Cornwallis before I realized it was more administration – and it was too late then!”

But the training served him well. His fi rst posting was in Stadacona, and he went to sea for several years. Choosing an extension, he worked himself into a prime opportunity for a posting in Germany, working

security and as a driver for Ca-nadian offi cials. He spent the next few years in Sydney, Nova Scotia as Reserve support staff, then headed to Norfolk, Virginia to work with NATO.

“It was all good, all awe-some.”

The international experi-ence in the early years of his career made a difference for him.

“You were noticed as a Canadian, for sure. In Europe, they loved Canadians and we were treated like gold. But, you were also looked upon by senior people as a good representative for your coun-try, and the Canadian Forces.”

In those early days, Canada was “busy. Ships were gone all the time, we had an ‘en-

emy’ through the Cold War and we were focused – I think it was better times than now, where all these little countries are the challenge.”

Arsenault spent several more years at various Halifax-area postings, and moved to Greenwood in 2001. He was the chief warrant offi cer in the Wing Administration branch for fi ve years, and then made another decision.

“I have three boys (one

is a U.S. Marine, another is a firefighter here at 14 Wing and the third is an air weapons technician in Cold Lake), and the oldest – the Marine, had done two tours in Iraq. I noticed differences in him and me. My priorities changed: I thought it might be more important for me to be home more for the family, that it would be healthy for the boys.”

He signed over to the Air Reserve, also recognizing it would be a good way for him to transition his own career.

“I don’t think I could have left cold,” he says. “I re-member taking my fi rst 35-day break, wondering what I would do. Now, I think there are just too many people who wait too long to retire and something happens. It’s not worth it. I’m not burned out, and I still enjoy everything at work, but I want to enjoy the next phase of my life.”

His wife retired from an ad-ministrative civilian role here at the wing in October, and has been awaiting Arsenault’s fi nal days at work as the Re-serve employment and train-ing offi cer. Travel, gardening, visiting grandchildren, golf and fi nding volunteer oppor-tunities and new hobbies are

on the immediate radar.“It’s been really great to

see the new recruits come in and succeed over my last few years: the military needs new blood, and there’s an op-portunity in that. These kids are smart, and we’re going to advance in so many areas that

are second nature to them.”(He recalls the days he was

called back from Germany for six weeks, teaching a course in Halifax on how to use the “new” word processors.)

“This is it. Tomorrow, I get up, I go for my massage and change the tires on the car.

Each year, search and rescue (SAR) crews and coordinators respond to ap-proximately 10,000 marine, aeronautical and humanitar-ian incidents nation-wide. The three search and rescue regions (SRR), in Victoria, Trenton and Halifax; work together to oversee SAR operations across Canada, which includes over 18 mil-lion square kilometres of land and sea.

“The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) maintains one of the most effective SAR systems in the world. Our men and women always re-spond immediately and have saved thousands of lives across the country,” says Lieutenant-Colonel Craig Weir, senior SAR advisor at Canadian Joint Operations Command (CJOC).

SAR crews follow a sched-ule of 40 hours a week of 30-minute SAR response

time. This means, for eight hours a day, fi ve days of the week; SAR crews must be airborne within 30 minutes of being notifi ed of a task. Outside of the 40-hour week, SAR crews continue to re-spond immediately and must be airborne within two hours.

The CAF is currently trial-ing an adjustment of re-sponse times to better align with the hours and days dur-ing which SAR incidents are most likely to occur. While the pre-existing 40-hour-a-week 30-minute response time will not change, this trial, which will vary for squadrons and aircraft, aims to align the 30-minute response posture with periods of greatest SAR activity.

“We are always looking to improve the assistance we provide to Canadians, so it is important to evaluate when there is a higher demand for a 30 minute response time,”

says Weir. A study from April 2014 confirms the occur-rence of SAR incidents occur most frequently in the sum-mer months, on weekends, as well as in the afternoons or evenings.

The adjusted schedule was first tested in the Trenton SRR in 2013 and yielded positive results. The trial ex-panded to include the Victoria SRR in 2014 and the results are still under review.

“This year, the trial will be refi ned and will include the Halifax SRR. The results and analysis of these trials will help to align SAR readi-ness to the statistical occur-rence of incidents across the country.”

Ultimately, no matter the location of the incident or the time of day, SAR crews in Canada are well-trained and ready to respond im-mediately when Canadians require their assistance.

Captain D.P. Penney, Personnel

Administration Offi cer

February has come and gone for another year, and with it, another great winter carnival. This year, the theme was Ancient Civilizations and

the members of the 14 Wing family sported the great-est costumes representing their teams and their units. The team from the Hornell Centre, the mighty Vikings, which included 404 Squad-ron, Wing Operations, 14 SES, and MP&EU, ransacked

the games and won the cov-eted fi rst place and bragging rights for the rest of 2015!

This year, a greater em-phasis was placed on partici-pation by the whole family of DND personnel. As a result, Friday was a chance for the adults to play games and

Saturday was reserved for the children. Mother Nature even got into the game, and there was enough snow for the next fi ve winter carnivals. The Lip Sync contest, always a carnival highlight, closed out the festivities on Satur-day night. As usual, it was

an entertaining spectacle that grows every year. The Glori-ous Aztecs, more commonly called 14 AMS, emerged the conquerors of the stage.

A heartfelt thank you to all the sponsors and the orga-nizing council who helped make the 2015 Carnival hap-

pen. Such an event cannot be done without the per-severance and good will of fantastic volunteers as we have in Greenwood. See you in 2016!

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20You impress everyone with your creativity this week, Aries. Allow this creativity to be the inspiration behind projects you have been putting off of late.TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Keep your goals relatively simple for the next few days, Taurus. You can benefi t from the positive reinforcement of completing tasks and getting things done.GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, you have been immersed in work and are starting to show the ill effects of keeping long hours. Now is a great time to take a few days off or enjoy a mini-vacation.CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, you have a lot to get done, but resist the urge to micromanage every detail, as this could be a surefi re path to burnout. You need to take a few breaths. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, avoid the temptation to get started on another new project. You already have plenty of other things on your plate. Finish those tasks before moving on to something new.VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22It is sometimes easy to miss the forest for the trees, Virgo. Try taking a step back so you can look at a puzzling project from a new perspective.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, you may be searching for a new adventure, but try to appreciate the here and now as well. It’s easy to get swept up in fantasies, but don’t let them carry you too far away. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, you suspect that someone is hiding something, and that very well may be the case. Perhaps a welcome surprise is coming your way. Resist the urge to dig too deep.SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21You can probably talk your way out of trouble, Sagittarius, but this time it’s better to let things play out. Keep conversations light and free from controversy.CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, find balance between your personal ambitions and things you have to accomplish at work and at home. Finding a middle ground is the best approach.AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, you need a few extra people to contribute to a special task, but you do not know who to ask. If you think hard enough, you will know who you can depend on.PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Your demeanour makes it easy for others to enjoy your company, and that will come in handy as your social schedule fi lls up in the days ahead.

West Kings District High school’s drama program is heading “Into the Woods.”

Before “Into the Woods” was made into the popular Disney movie released earlier this year, it was a success-ful musical on the Broad-way stage during the 1980s. With lyrics written by Stephen Sondheim and a script by James Lapine, this enchant-ing musical gives a modern take to the plots of several Grimm brothers’ fairy tales. The story revolves around a baker and his wife who wish to have a child. However, a curse has been set on them by a witch. In order for the curse to be lifted and their wish to be granted, the baker and his wife set out into the woods to fi nd a specifi c set of items for the witch.

At West Kings, the dynamic duo of Hal Jessome and Da-

vid O’Leary have been work-ing with a talented group of student thespians since fall. They started their process with a series of auditions. Once characters were in place, rehearsals began, four hours twice a week.

Emilee Wood, Grade 12, has been a part of all West Kings musical productions since her Grade 9 year. Wood has the lead role of the baker’s wife this year; Jeffery Bickle plays her husband.

“’Into the Woods’ is, by far, the most challenging musi-cal I’ve been part of at West Kings,” she says. “I am very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to work with such talented members of the drama club who have been able to fill the shoes of the diverse characters in this production. I feel that the feedback from this musical will be even more rewarding than previous years, due to

the hard work we have all put in to this show.”

“In August, when David and I got together to select a show, we knew this would be our biggest challenge to date. One, because there are so many big roles and, secondly, because of the complexities of Sond-heim’s music,” says Jessome. “The kids have embraced the challenge with enthusiasm. It has been a lot of hard and dif-fi cult work, but the end result is going to be a wonderful experience for the audience.”

Show times are Wednesday, March 4 through Saturday, March 7 at 7:30 p.m. in the West Kings auditorium. There is also a matinee Sunday, March 8 at 2 p.m. Admission is $13 for adults and $10 for students. Tickets may be purchased at the West Kings District High School office, or by calling 902-847-4440.
