ENTRY/EXIT PROCEDURES:
All aircraft transitioning directly from RAPCONs airspace (area X-Ray) to the MHRC shall
be on a Local Stereo or IFR Flight Plan.
Once in the airspace, all aircraft will squawk assigned MODE III codes.
If transitioning directly from ARTCC airspace into MHRC aircraft shall be cleared b y the
ARTCC.
IFR or VFR aircraft recovering to BOI or MUO shall exit via Coyote in the block 13,000 ft -
14,000 ft MSL, unless otherwise coordinat ed.
Aircraft will contact the RAPCON b efore reaching the exit points for clearance, stating: call
sign, location, altitude, numb er in flight, and intentions (exit point, IFR or canceling for VFR and
flight following, or to MUO).
Pilots will apply MARSA procedures until standard AT C separation is achieved and issued an
IFR clearance (if requesting an IFR pick-up).

Bird Watch Conditions
(IAW 124FW BASH Plan May 2010)
SOFs will declare Bird Watch Condition based on: direct observations of current
conditions, information relayed from airborne aircraft, observations made by Boise Air
Terminal tower and/or 124th FW Airfield Management and current AHAS information
(http://www.usahas.com <http://www.usahas.com/> , unit option 124 WG)
1. SEVERE Bird activity on or immediately above the active runway or other specific
location representing high potential for strikes. Aircrews must thoroughly evaluate
mission need before operating in areas under condition SEVERE.
a. Traffic Pattern. Takeoff and landing not authorized unless a greater
emergency and/ or immediate operational necessity dictates (e.g. minimum fuel or
inflight emergency)
b. Training Areas. Tactical training is authorized, but pilots should avoid flight
levels and specific areas with reported bird activity (generally below 3000 AGL).
Identify specific areas and altitudes. Those areas will be avoided by all flights when
possible.
c. Low-level Routes. Low levels and LOWAT missions are prohibited.
2. MODERATE Bird activity near the active runway or other specific locations
representing increased potential for strikes. This condition requires increased vigilance
by all agencies and extreme caution by pilots.
a. Traffic Pattern. Multiple approach and traffic pattern activity ceases. A
departure and full stop landing is allowed if the departure and approach route avoids
identified bird activities. Pilots will modify events in order to avoid bird activity.
b. Training Areas. Tactical training is authorized but pilots should avoid
geographic areas and land features where birds have been identified. Flight leads will
make appropriate changes in mission profile to minimize bird strike risk.
c. Low-level Routes. Amendments to flight altitude will be made to minimize
bird strike risk. Limit formation flying to a minimum for mission requirements.
Minimum altitude is 1000 AGL.
3. LOW Bird activity on and around the airfield representing low potential for strikes.
No restrictions. Normal operations.
Pilots have a responsibility to report any bird activity encountered in-flight that could
constitute a hazard. Notify the SOF, control tower or RCO to pass information.
(1) Callsign
(2) Location
(3) Altitude
(4) Time of sighting
(5) Type of bird (if known)
(6) Approximate number of birds

CROSSWIND CONVERSION CHART
MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION
Hot Weather Procedures (effective when temperature reaches 95 F)
T/Os are prohibited when BOI temperature reaches 104 F
Limit ramp time to 1 hour
Defined as time when pilot leaves an air-conditioned environment until back in
air-conditioned environment (cockpit with AC running is considered cooled)
If aborting after cooling cockpit, ramp time continues while going to the spare
Do not accomplish:
Formation T/Os, (chased T/Os are permitted)
More than one LATN or LATF event per sortie
Civil twilight
30 min after sunset and 30 prior to sunrise is considered night time for flying
maneuvers and daytime for pilot rest purposes
Non-Standard Formation the last wingman from the same formation will squawk 4000
out of BOI read back with clearance delivery.

number in parenthesis is the FITS index number.

NOTE: 1. This chart is valid for clear sky to light overcast (shadow visible).
2. Recommended actions for three zones:
A. CAUTION ZONE
(1) Be aware of heat stress
(2) Limit ground time (preflight, cockpit standby) to 90 minutes
(3) Recovery time minimum 2 hours between flights
B. DANGER ZONE
(1) Limit ground time to 45 minutes or less if possible
(2) Avoid more than one flight a day if possible (2 hours min recovery
between)
(3) Low level missions with temperatures in the zone are not advised
C. When FITS index is greater than 115, consider cancelling all
non-essential flights.

RECALL / DISPERSAL
General
Aircraft may be recalled or dispersed via information received over guard, ATC, SOF,
or from other aircraft
Recall
If recalled, follow normal recovery procedures
Dispersal, Exercise Only
Do not use guard!
Contact SOF or CMD Post and provide fuel state and ETA to dispersal base
Continue with normal mission
Once back in the squadron, call CMD Post and advise them of your simulated
dispersal location code (Base A/B/C etc) and time you would have landed
Dispersal, Actual and Airborne
Contact SOF, CMD Post, or ATC in that order for further information
Determine fuel state; Can you reach the primary/secondary dispersal bases?
If an emergency, will you close dispersal base runway? Consider another base
At dispersal base, the SRO will take command of 124 WG resources Coordinate
beddown and attempt contact with other WG deployed forces
Expect a dispersal packet to arrive via aircraft with follow-on instructions
Dispersal, Actual and Still on the Ground
Follow Top 3 guidance
If immediate launch is ordered, A-10s will taxi to active RWY from ramp
Dispersal kits may be delivered to your jet prior to launch
19
BOISE HUNG ORDNANCE RECOVERY
When VMC and able to maintain VFR, fly a ground track to minimize over-flight of
populated areas.
When IMC and unable to fly the above written procedure, fly an instrument straight-
in approach to the active runway. Aircraft with hung ordnance are not an emergency
aircraft. Pilots will follow Weapons Malfunction Matrix located in this In-flight Guide.
Hung Gun with anything other than an UNSAFE GUN LIGHT will divert to MUO
Hung BDUs OK to BOI as long as Pilot has re-attempted release on range IAW -
