February 11-12 Basic Inland SAR School
Registration is now open for the AFRCC Basic Inland SAR Course (BISC) to be hosted by Maryland Wing on 11 & 12 February 2021. The class will be held from 0800-1700 hours both days. The Basic Inland SAR Course (BISC) was developed to bring “SAR from a Federal perspective” to the men and women of the Civil Air Patrol and others from local, state and federal agencies within the United States. The course is administered by the Air Force Rescue Coordination Center.
The course consists of lessons with PowerPoint presentations, and ends with a tabletop exercise of a search scenario.
Specific areas covered include: SAR Network Overview, AFRCC, Resources and Mission Types, Radar and Cell Phone Forensics, Beacons, FAA, Mission Operations to include search theory/family and media.
The focus of the course is to provide an environment that will allow the attendees to discuss their past experiences, concerns for SAR and do that “all-important” networking that is needed to provide a cooperative SAR network.
This course is recommended for Incident Staff personnel (Search Managers) as well as Ground Team Leaders and Mission Observers. There is a minimum age requirement of 18 years old.
Due to COVID restrictions, the class is limited to 20 personnel.
