The Special Operations (SO) department is responsible for all extra-civil activities on the network.

This includes all military flights, test flights, police air missions, search and rescue missions as well as all rescue and inter-hospital flights.

In particular, we are in charge of:

• Create and manage SO tour's in French division.
• Ensure relations with Special Operations Groups (military VA) and manage their affiliation to the SO-HQ.
• Develop, validate and keep up to date the tools and documents available on the IVAO France site.
• Create SO events and edit the associated NOTAMs.
• Regulatory watch on all the new and old rules published by the SO-HQ and apply them in division.
• Coordination with neighboring SO departments and SO HQ department on events and other actions.
• Monitoring of military activity on the network (regular inspection of the webeye and others to monitor SO actions carried out).
