  • Monitor external military and civilian markets for introduction of new tools and knowledge (software, hardware, policies) for models, equipment and best practices with potential Coast Guard applicability in relation to aviation mishaps and FDA using FDR data.
  • Conduct travel on an as needed basis to support USCG fleet flight data program requirements.
