This instruction implements Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 11-2, Aircrew Operations, and
AFPD 10-21, Rapid Global Mobility. It prescribes specific guidance and information for mission
planners and aircrews, and also outlines Destination Airfield Suitability Analysis (DASA) as a
key planning consideration ensuring the effectiveness and safety of worldwide mobility mission
operations. In accordance with (IAW) AFPD 11-2, this publication outlines operations guidance
and procedures that specifically pertain to DASA. Additionally, AFPD 10-21 assigns to Air
Mobility Command (AMC) responsibility to manage the Rapid Global Mobility (RGM) process
for destination airport analysis to include foreign terminal instrument procedure review, airfield
suitability, and landing zone assessment processes and products. AMC satisfies this requirement
through the worldwide airfield database (Location Management Application) in the Global
Decision Support System (GDSS), and also through the Zone Availability Report (ZAR). This
instruction focuses on policy supporting GDSS Airfield Detail assessments and corresponding
Giant Reports, while providing overarching Major Command (MAJCOM) guidance which
supplements and/or expands upon both the Airfield Suitability and Restrictions Report (ASRR),
and Air Mobility Command Instruction (AMCI) 11-208, Mobility Air Forces Management. This
instruction further delineates DASA procedures, responsibilities, and standards for AMC and
AMC-gained mission planning and execution at all organizational levels. It applies to all AMC
aircraft, planners, and aircrew, including AMC-gained Air National Guard (ANG) and United
States Air Force Reserve (AFRC). Ensure all records created as a result of processes prescribed
in this publication are maintained in accordance with Air Force Instruction 33-322, Records
Management and Information Governance Program, and disposed of in accordance with the Air
Force Records Disposition Schedule located in the AF Records Information Management
