<br />Section 3.04 of this Agreement provides for the assignment of a full-time <br />sworn police officer to ABLE to serve as a member of the flight crew. <br />Currently, each member of the flight crew is a trained pilot. In order to <br />realize the full benefit of this position, ABLE will require that this officer meet <br />all of the qualifications and requirements as set forth in the ABLE Operations <br />Manual for Pilots. This officer will be subject to and meet all of the <br />requirements for pilots as set forth in the ABLE Pilot Training Program. This <br />training will be provided by ABLE personnel and designated professional <br />training facilities with all associated costs being the responsibility of the <br />AGENCY. The cost of such training is in addition to the cost for helicopter <br />service set forth in this Exhibit "A" and will be billed directly to the AGENCY. <br /> <br />The AGENCY agrees to provide ABLE with one designated officer, who will <br />serve as a helicopter observer, for the purpose of providing vacation and sick <br />leave relief. The AGENCY agrees to make this officer available for training <br />pursuant to the ABLE Helicopter Observer Training Program. This officer will <br />serve in a pool of personnel trained to fill shortfalls due to vacation, sick <br />leave and miscellaneous unscheduled absences. The cost for this position is <br />approximately equivalent to the vacation and sick leave accrued annually by <br />the current Santa Ana police officer serving as an ABLE pilot. <br /> <br />ABLE shall participate in the selection process for officers assigned to the <br />unit as flight crewmembers and reserves the right to revoke assignments <br />without cause. Officers assigned to the ABLE program pursuant to this <br />agreement shall meet all requirements set forth in the ABLE Operations <br />Manual. <br /> <br />2 <br />
