Started as SIC and upgraded to PIC flying ISR missions, LiDAR and optical collections. I coordinated the airspace, speaking with civilian and military airspace controllers; builder briefing materials and then emailed them to all stakeholders. I also maintained the EFBs at the deployed site. And I was the Site Safety Officer, briefing newly arrived personnel and conducting monthly meetings along with site inspections using SMS on Baldwin.

Provided Part 61 ground and flight instruction for students seeking Private, Instrument and Commercial pilots certifications.

Supervised loading and unloading of cargo, computed aircraft weight & balance, insured structural limitations were not exceeded, configured aircraft from passenger, carrying to cargo carrying to aerial delivery of cargo and personnel. I also performed Joint Airdrop Inspector duties. I was also an instructor and an evaluator for this crew position. Later, I lead a contingency response team in the opening and management of an airfield in Syria providing C2 and cargo loading functions.
