  SUBJECT: FILING PIREPS
  REMARKS:

  Pilots,

  When filing PIREPS again when submitting please indicate Callsign used along with your assigned wing and assigned squadron. This will help out when you change aircraft, fly multiple aircraft, or have changed assignments.

  EX: KLAN51/F15C/199FS/154WG

  Acceptable remarks:

  1. Name of operation and exercise you are flying in or type of flying.

  2. Loadout or cargo that you are carrying.

  3. Discrepancies or any problems encountered during all phases of flight.

  4. Area of operation (ex. W-156 or Dare County Bomb Range) that you are flying in as well as associated unit you are flying with or against.

  Unacceptable remarks:

  1. Intelligence Reports or any correspondence from MAJCOM or AIR STAFF.

  2. Other unnecessary remarks that are more appropriate to put in a FORUM after action report.

  Also unless you are a cargo or passenger or helo you do not count aircrew members that are required to operate the aircraft in the passenger number. Fighter aircraft should always have 0 passengers as we know that the pilot or the pilot/wso are the aircrew members.

  Thank You,
