After detonation no aircraft shall operate inside the
air radex or closer than ten (10) nautical miles from

the rising or visible cloud wnless specifically directed

otherwise. If a tactical or emergency situation arises
where aircraft must enter the air radex, tactical exposure allowances shall apply.

All multi-engine Task Force aircraft in the air at H Hour
within one hundred (100) miles of the detonation point
shall carry a person designated as radiological safety
monitor equipped with suitable radiac equipment and a
radex plot. This monitor shall be capable of calculating
allowable exposures under both tactical and operational
conditions.

(4)

All persons in aircraft at shot time, or at subsequent
times when engaged in operations in or near the cloud
or radex track shall wear film badges.

(5)

Pilots and copilots of aircraft in the alr at shot time
shall use modified all-purpose .1 density filter goggles.
Copilots should, as an extra precaution, over their eyes

with forearm at zero hour.
