ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION FOR USE
WARNING
FLIGHT OPERATIONS WITH AIRSAVE
Prior to flight operations in any aircraft, aircrew
members must ensure that the AIRSAVE vest and
ballistic insert do not interfere with flight controls,
weapons systems operation, or restrict performance of
in-flight duties. The AIRSAVE vest may be used in lieu
of the current restraint harness, commonly referred to as
the "monkey harness."
Aviation Life Support System (ALSS) personnel will fit, pack and
adjust the AIRSAVE vest and body armor in accordance with
TM 1-1680-360-12. Unit Commanders should develop specific
instructions in the Unit SOP for packing and wear of the AIRSAVE
vest and body armor, that meet the specified missions of the
organization. All AIRSAVE vest SOP packing lists should be
reviewed and approved by Unit Commander, Flight Surgeon, and
Safety Officer.
