Book excerpt: The Tanker Airlift Control Center (TACC) is the central execution agency for determining and tasking all AMC operational mission requirements. Central to the TACC is the mission management function that organizes, plans, directs and controls AMC airlift and air refueling missions worldwide. As it moves into the future, TACC must adopt emerging capabilities in communication, navigation, and surveillance to allow it to continue to freely operate throughout the world air traffic system. To position itself for future operations, the TACC has implemented the Mobility 2000 initiative, a key element of which is the planned introduction of Integrated Flight Management, or IFM. Central to IFM will be the introduction of the flight dispatch function - a proactive, real time command and control system patterned after that used by commercial airlines. At this time, TACC leaders are unsure whether to organize the future flight dispatch operation based on geography, product line or aircraft type. This Graduate Research Project explores these organizational options, and specifically seeks to identify criteria that TACC can use in deciding on a final organizational structure. To assist in this process, it evaluates the organizational issues in the context of the Rational Decision Making Model as discussed by Griffin.

Book excerpt: n this extremely comprehensive overview of airlift and air mobility, Colonel Miller shows how the worldwide orientation of American foreign policy, the numerous threats to free-world interests, and the speed and complexity of modern warfare have combined with political and resource constraints to produce today's airlift doctrine and force structure. Airlift is the movement of goods and people to where they are needed, when they are needed there. Since the 1920s there has been an evolving awareness and articulation of how to best organize, train, and equip airlift forces for that mission. The worldwide orientation of American foreign policy, the numerous threats to free world interests, and the speed and complexity of modern warfare have combined with political and resource constraints to produce today's airlift doctrine and force structure. Colonel Miller's study traces these many interrelationships to discover what critical airlift decisions were made, why they were made, and what they may mean in the future. Airlift is the backbone of deterrence. A properly structured and equipped airlift force is critical to the successful execution of the national military strategy. How we think about airlift and how we translate those thoughts into a meaningful expression of how to develop, deploy, and employ airlift forces is vital to the national defense. Colonel Miller's study is a definitive step in that important process.
