coordinate, implement, and update these plans. This officer may be a commissioned officer, a warrant
officer, a noncommissioned officer, or a civilian.

active security program.

with the aircraft, if possible. Otherwise, the CO is responsible for advising aviation authorities and the
local law enforcement agency of the following:

(3) Estimated length of stay.
(4) How crew members may be contacted.
c. The aircraft will be checked by a crewmember at least once a day.
