Which role would typically create guidance for unauthorized landings?

• A. Wing Commander
• B. Base Operations Officer
• C. Installation Commander
• D. Airfield Manager

Answer: (C)

Guidance for unauthorized landings comes from the person who has overarching authority to set base-wide security and safety policies. The Installation Commander holds that responsibility, overseeing all activities on the installation, including airfield operations, and authorizes official directives and procedures. They establish how the base responds to unauthorized landings, what security measures are in place, and how incidents are reported and managed. The actual drafting of procedures may be delegated to the Base Operations Officer or the Airfield Manager to implement, but the formal guidance originates with the Installation Commander.
