During all phases of air operations, who shall inform PriFly and AATCC prior to changing BRC/speed and provide expected BRC/speed?

On all phases of air operations, the officer of the deck is the person responsible for coordinating shipboard flight activities and safety. This role serves as the bridge between the bridge, flight control, and air traffic control centers, so when a change to handling parameters like BRC or speed is planned, it must be communicated to PriFly and AATCC with the new value and the expected figure. By providing the anticipated BRC and speed, the OOD ensures PriFly can adjust deck status, launch/recovery timing, and misalignment risks, while AATCC can update air traffic sequencing and clearance planning accordingly. The executive authority above the OOD, such as the CO, delegates the day-to-day control, and the LSO handles on-deck signaling, but the duty to notify PriFly and AATCC and specify the new values rests with the OOD.
