If you’re visiting ASOG, the following images let you see who Airborne Sensor Operators are and the many organizations and industry sectors that interlinked with the ASO profession.

You’ll see a collection of badges, wings, selfies at work, challenge coins, business cards, a view from an ASOs office, aircraft, sensors, past, and present, etc., in a pictorial manner of the world in and around our ASO profession.

For ASOG members, “You’re Cleared for Posting!” You can upload an image and even provide information related to that image (remember, no classified info, irrelevant or offensive photos).

 

TFO

This might be of interest to the Public Safety ASOs in our group and/or someone looking for best practices regarding their specific ASO community. The Airborne Public Safety Association (APSA) published several excellent articles in their May/June Air Beat magazine regarding the airborne law enforcement Tactical Flight Officer (a.k.a. Airborne Sensor Operator).

From an ASOG perspective, the articles really covers the spectrum of being a TFO and in many ways an ASO.

• Technology Changes, Basic TFO Skills Don’t
• Tactical Chess: TFO Selection, Training & Performance
• Position to Mission: More Than Just a TFO
• Air Support Choreography: What Does a Tactical Flight Officer Do?
• The Mighty TFO: Riverside’s Task-Saturated Aviation Job Requires Tactical Tenacity
• TFO Intelligence: Controlling Tactical Operations From Above

If you have access to the magazine, I highly recommend you give it a read. For more information, checkout APSA website: https://publicsafetyaviation.org/
