As part of a larger effort to develop a comprehensive and multi-faceted training program for air show air bosses, ICAS recently re-constructed its Air Boss 201 Workshop.

The new course addresses some of the more complex issues in air show air/ground operations, the pre-show safety briefing, changes to air regulations, discussion on air show entertainment techniques and strategies, radio communications and case history discussions on difficult air/ground operations problems and issues. This advanced, half-day course also explains how to assess event preparation and readiness, and how to stay within both the letter and the intent of all applicable regulations, ensuring pilot safety.

By itself, the course will not qualify an individual to become an air boss. But this program is focused on air boss issues and can be used as a useful first step in developing the knowledge base necessary to become an air show air boss.
