Operations

The Northeast Region (NER) Civil Air Patrol (CAP) is comprised of a CAP Wing in each of the 9 northeast states - Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. These wing conduct a variety of operational activities.  Most of these operational activities are done in CAP's role as the United State Air Force Auxiliary as Defence Support to Civil Authorities (DSCA) missions under Title10.  In addition, NER wings provide assistance to State and Local authorities in many cases before there is a defined Federal interest under Title 36 as well.

To exercise oversight of these activities the NER Operations Department is organized into 5 functional areas (Sections): Special Missions - Counterdrug (CD) Operations, Homeland Security (HLS) / Air Defence Mission Operations, and MQ-9 Chase Mission Operations; Region Coordination Center Operations - FEMA Regions I, II and III Liaison and RCC Training; Aircrew Standardization and Evaluation (Stan/Eval) – Stan/Eval for Powered Aircraft Operations and Stan/Eval for Glider Operations; Aircraft Maintenance – for Powered Aircraft and for Gliders; and Mission Support Administration.

Each Section within the Operations Department has one or more staff (subject matter experts) that is responsible for the specific areas assigned.  Each of the staff listed in the right hand menu has a web-page that contains the specific information for that function.
