A10.4.1. (Added) Airfield entry points. Entry points are marked with warning signs stating you are entering the airfield. Only government or POV/contractor owned/government leased vehicles with an airfield or ramp pass are authorized on the airfield. A FOD checkpoint is located at each airfield entry point.

A10.4.2. (Added) All vehicles that operate on the airfield inside the FOD checkpoints must be equipped with a self-closing FOD container.

A10.4.3. (Added) FOD Control and Prevention. FOD checkpoints are black and white signs painted on the concrete located at airfield entry and at entry locations to areas where aircraft with engines running may be encountered. FOD checks must be done each and every time you enter these areas. Competency cards will be revoked for non-compliance. Proper procedures are:

A10.4.3.1. (Added) Stop at FOD checkpoint.

A10.4.3.2. (Added) Exit vehicle and check exposed areas of tires and undercarriage for loose debris. Remove debris imbedded in the tires.

A10.4.3.3. (Added) Pull vehicle forward until the remaining area of the tire is visible and check for FOD.

FOD container located at the entry point. DO NOT THROW FOD ONTO THE AIRFIELD.

A10.4.3.5. (Added) Secure loose items in vehicle cargo areas.

A10.4.4. Vehicle Operations in Vicinity of Aircraft and Airfield Vehicle Traffic Flow.

A10.4.4.1. (Added) Always approach parked aircraft with the driver’s side of the vehicle towards the aircraft and the vehicle pointed away.

A10.4.4.2. (Added) Vehicles will not be driven or parked closer than 10 feet from a parked aircraft; 25 feet to front, or beside an aircraft with engines running or about to be started and 50 feet from an aircraft being (or about to be) fueled.

A10.4.4.3. (Added) The distance behind an aircraft with engines running (or about to be started) is 200 feet, except for heavy aircraft such as B-1, B-52, C-5, C-17, DC/KC-10, E-3, E- 6, KC-135 and KC-46 which is 600 feet.

DAFI13-213_TINKERAFBSUP 11 MARCH 2021 17

A10.4.4.4. (Added) Vehicles shall not be backed toward, driven under or driven forward in the immediate direction of any aircraft except as authorized in certain loading, unloading, or refueling operations. In these cases, pre-positioned wheel chocks will be placed between the aircraft and the approaching vehicle to prevent the vehicle from striking the aircraft. Guides will be posted as a required safety measure.

A10.4.4.5. (Added) Use taxiway centerlines as road dividers and remain immediately to the right.

A10.4.4.6. (Added) Do a visual check before crossing an intersecting taxiway.

A10.4.4.7. (Added) Traffic lanes on the aircraft parking ramps are normally the areas to the right of the aircraft or parallel to the noses of the parked aircraft with the driver’s side toward the aircraft.

Some ramp areas have clearly marked vehicle traffic lanes.

A10.4.4.8. (Added) Give way to aircraft taxiing, in-tow, or being led by a Follow-Me vehicle.

Do not drive between a Follow-Me vehicle and the aircraft that it is guiding.

A10.4.4.9. (Added) Organizations operating around aircraft must stress speed and procedures for your organization’s vehicle traffic flow.

A10.4.5. (Added) Procedures for operating a vehicle on the Mandatory Radio Monitor Area

(MRMA) and the Controlled Movement Area (CMA).

A10.4.5.1. (Added) When in the MRMA/CMA, always be aware of your surroundings. There are always aircraft, vehicles and equipment moving on the airfield.

A10.4.5.2. (Added) Airfield drivers must always monitor the Tinker Ground frequency while operating in the MRMA and comply with instructions from Tinker Ground as requested. Airfield drivers shall establish direct radio communications with Tinker Ground to obtain permission to enter the CMA. Use of a third party for communications with Tinker Ground is prohibited. The driver will provide Tinker Ground their radio call sign, location of entrance to the CMA, and intent.

The airfield diagram in Attachment 12 depicts the CMA boundary. Non-compliance with the instruction will result in a CMA violation. Airfield drivers shall read back all instructions by

Ground Control to hold short of all runways or runway. Airfield drivers will maintain continuous radio contact with Tinker Ground while in the CMA and will advise Ground when off the CMA.

A10.4.5.3. (Added) Vehicle’s four-way flashers/emergency lights or beacon will operate at all times (day and night) while operating in the MRMA, CMA and all ramps.

A10.4.5.4. (Added) Authorized Airfield Vehicle Traffic/Runway Crossings. Runways will not be used for crossings for convenience. Only mission essential vehicle operations outlined in this instruction are authorized to enter or cross a runway. Vehicle use of the airfield will be monitored by AM to ensure compliance with airfield driving procedures. Use of the airfield for convenience shall not be tolerated.

A10.4.5.5. (Added) Vehicles shall give way to taxiing or in-tow aircraft. If an aircraft is approaching your vehicle, exit at the nearest intersecting taxiway or reverse course. Do not drive off pavement, except as a last resort.

A10.4.5.6. (Added) Vehicles will not operate or be left unattended within the lateral obstacle clearance zones of runways, taxiways and aprons unless mission essential and in continuous communication with Tinker Ground.

18 DAFI13-213_TINKERAFBSUP 11 MARCH 2021

A10.4.5.7. (Added) If escorting another vehicle, discuss route to be taken with the other driver.

Vehicle being escorted must follow behind escort vehicle at all times. Remain together until mission is complete and off the airfield. Ensure both vehicles have hazard or rotating beacon lights on while operating on the airfield.

A10.4.5.8. (Added) When exiting the CMA, notify Ground Control with location of exit point.

A10.4.5.9. (Added) Vehicle Disabled/Breakdown. If for any reason the vehicle fails to operate under its own power while in the MRMA and CMA, immediately contact Ground Control of the nature of the problem and your position on the airfield. Ground Control will then contact appropriate personnel and reroute any taxiing aircraft.

A10.4.6. (Added) Procedures for proper radio terminology/phraseology and discipline. Refer to

Airfield Training Guide and this instruction.

A10.4.6.1. (Added) Make clear and concise radio transmissions and use proper radio terminology. Do not use 10 code/series phraseology.

A10.4.6.2. (Added) Ensure Tinker Ground’s instructions are understood and followed. Read back hold-short instructions received from Tinker Ground.

A10.4.6.3. (Added) After making a request to Tinker Ground, make sure the next transmission from Tinker Ground is yours, listen for your call sign. Tinker Ground is in communications with other vehicles and aircraft, don’t assume the next radio transmission is yours.

A10.4.6.4. (Added) Ensure the radio frequency is open before making a transmission, do not interrupt another radio transmission. Maintain good radio etiquette.

A10.4.6.5. (Added) Radios must be programmed by the base land mobile radio (LMR) office to provide selective call feature. This will require two different radio channel numbers on the radio.

The first channel allows two-way communication with Tinker Ground. The second channel number will be designated for channel guard; one-way communication with the Tinker Ground

(receive only) and two-way communication with all other agencies on the tower net radio frequency. Vehicle operators will use channel guard when conducting routine transmissions with agencies other than Tinker Ground. This reduces the amount of chatter on the tower net radio frequency and allows Tinker Ground to make essential traffic calls. Vehicle operators must switch from channel guard to the second programmed channel in order to communicate with Tinker

Ground.

A10.4.6.6. (Added) When in doubt, ask Tinker Ground to repeat instructions.

A10.4.6.7. (Added) Vehicles with radios can escort vehicles without radios. When escorting, vehicles must remain together at all times in the MRMA and CMA.

A10.4.6.8. (Added) Do not use the words CLEAR or CLEARANCE. These words are part of

Air Traffic Control terminology. It may also cause another driver to mistake the radio transmission for his/her authorization. Example: “Tinker Ground, Ops-29, Off Runway 18 at Taxiway Charlie.”

A10.4.6.9. (Added) Radio Communications in the CMA/MRMA will be closely monitored by

AM. Individuals failing to use proper communications with Tinker Ground will be checked by

AM. Proper communication includes using vehicle call signs on each and every transmission, repeating hold short instructions, monitoring the radio, and responding to radio calls promptly.

DAFI13-213_TINKERAFBSUP 11 MARCH 2021 19

A10.4.7. (Added) Speed Limits for vehicle parking areas/aircraft parking ramps/airfield access roads/taxiways/runways/towing operations. General purpose vehicle: 15 MPH; Special purpose:

10 MPH; Exception: Normal vehicle speed limit on the runway during non-emergency operations will be 30 MPH or as necessary to expedite exit at Control Tower direction. Speed limits for all emergency response vehicles responding to bona fide emergency situations will be a speed that is necessary to respond expeditiously and safely. No vehicle will operate in excess of 5 MPH when within 50 ft of an aircraft. No vehicle will operate at a speed in excess of that deemed reasonable and prudent for existing traffic, road, and weather conditions. If Tinker Ground, AM personnel, unit driving program manager, commander, or anyone else on the airfield takes notice of your speed, then you are speeding. Normally, a warning via the radio will be issued unless driver is using unusually excess speeds. If the warning is not followed, then you will be instructed to either hold your position until AM responds or report to AMOPS.

A10.4.8. (Added) Airfield and Instrument signs and markings, to include requirements to stop at

INST holding positions.

A10.4.8.1. (Added) Of primary concern are the HOLD SHORT LINE markings. This line marks the boundary of the runway. Look for multiple yellow lines on a black background 200 ft from the runway edge. DO NOT CROSS this line without authorization from Tinker Ground.

A10.4.8.2. (Added) Co-located with the painted HOLD SHORT LINE marking is the RUNWAY

HOLD POSITION SIGN, located to the left side of taxiway/runway boundary. This sign is on a red background with white numbers and is lighted for night/inclement weather operations. See

Attachment 3 for example.

A10.4.8.3. (Added) Boundaries for the Instrument Land System (ILS) areas are marked by

INSTRUMENT (INST) HOLD LINES. When personnel or equipment are within the ILS area, it could seriously degrade the ILS performance. INST Hold Lines are painted with multiple yellow lines on a black background. Drivers will stop at INST Hold Lines and request permission from

Tinker Ground to proceed across. CAUTION: Permission to proceed across an INST Hold Line is not authorization to cross a normal HOLD SHORT LINE.

A10.4.8.4. (Added) Co-located with the painted INST HOLD LINE marking is the INST HOLD

LINE SIGN. This mandatory sign, located to the left of the INST hold line, has a red background with the letters ILS in white. The INST sign is illuminated for nighttime and inclement weather operations. Roadways that enter an ILS critical area have unlit signs warning vehicle operators not to proceed without approval from Tinker Ground. See Attachment 3 for example.

A10.4.8.5. (Added) Painted runway markings are depicted with white retro reflective paint, taxiways and ramps have yellow markings. See Attachment 12 for location of INST, hold short lines, and critical areas.

A10.4.8.6. (Added) Taxiway line markings are used as guides for taxiing aircraft. Vehicles will use the markings as a road divider.

A10.4.8.7. (Added) Taxiway Guidance and informative signs identify location, direction, and designations of taxiways. Taxiway signs have black background with yellow lettering or yellow background with black lettering. Yellow lettering identifies the taxiway you are own, and black lettering identifies the taxiway you are approaching. Informative signs are lighted for night/inclement weather. See Attachment 3 for example.

20 DAFI13-213_TINKERAFBSUP 11 MARCH 2021

A10.4.9. (Added) Night and Inclement Weather Driving.

A10.4.9.1. (Added) The airfield environment at night is different than the day. The night environment may not be as busy, but can be more hazardous due to impaired vision caused by the darkness and the confusion caused by the various lights on the airfield. When driving at night, use more caution.

A10.4.9.2. (Added) Aircraft have the right of way on the airfield. Do not shine your vehicle headlights towards a moving aircraft. Turn vehicle headlights off, but always keep the four- way flashers or beacon on. Turning off headlights prevents temporary blindness in the pilot or tow operator. Leaving flashers or beacon operating lets the pilot/tow operator and Tinker Ground know your location at all times. Vehicles with day running lights will position vehicle where lights do not shine toward a moving aircraft.

A10.4.9.3. (Added) Tinker Base Weather Station disseminates weather advisories, watches, and warnings on the local LAN during periods of inclement weather. Unit Commanders may impose additional airfield restrictions on their unit drivers. AFMAN 91-203 provides additional safety information and guidance.

A10.4.10. (Added) Runway Entry/Crossing, Runway Incursion Prevention, and Reduce non-essential vehicle movements on the airfield and procedures to limit vehicle traffic crossing the runway to an absolute minimum.

A10.4.10.1. (Added) Emphasize the possible consequences of crossing or entering the runway without authorization from Tinker Ground. Unauthorized vehicles on the runway cause a serious potential for death and destruction. Failure to obtain authorization prior to entering or crossing any runway is considered a runway incursion. Incursions are serious and all vehicle operators must be thoroughly trained in runway entry/crossing procedures to prevent such occurrences. Remember, the primary function of a runway is the landing and take-off of aircraft.

A10.4.10.2. (Added) Emphasize and explain the Hold Short Line and Runway Hold Position

Sign.

A10.4.10.3. (Added) If requesting to enter a runway, give location, and intent. Note: The only vehicles that have a mission requirement to be on the runways are Airfield Management, Airfield

Lighting, CE, Pavements, SOF, Fire Department, FOD BOSS, and Safety. Remind potential drivers that only mission essential vehicle operations are permitted in the MRMA/CMA. Non-essential vehicle traffic must use perimeter roads.

A10.4.10.4. (Added) The only area on the airfield that does not have Hold Short markings to define the runway is where the runways intersect; however, runway hold position signs are installed. To cross or enter the intersecting runway, stop 200 feet prior to the intersecting runway at the runway hold position sign before requesting authorization from Ground Control. To cross an extended runway centerline beyond the overrun, stop a minimum of 200 feet from edge of runway environment and request authorization from Ground Control.

A10.4.10.5. (Added) When authorization is given by Tinker Ground, read-back the instructions while doing a visual check of the runway in both directions, then cross or enter the runway.

A10.4.10.6. (Added) As soon as the vehicle has passed the Hold Short…
