If you want to become an Air Boss today, there’s technically no requirement that you have experience as an air traffic controller, you don’t need to be a pilot or have formation flying experience. It’s essentially an informal apprenticeship program where you spend a lot of time observing other air bosses. Eventually you get a few letters of recommendation, you pass a written exam, and you attend a course through ICAS and then an Air Boss Evaluator will observe you in action and if everything’s good then ICAS will make a recommendation to the FAA and the FAA will issue you a letter of authorization.

One of the most shocking things about this tragedy was that the warning signs were already there. Two weeks prior to this crash there was an air show in Houston. The air boss’s father was the Air Boss for that show but his son was there and helping out. It was reported that during the Houston show on Saturday they had an incident of a fighter flying head on at a C-47 and passing below them when they were only 200 feet above the ground. Even though the pilot said it wasn’t normal, he never talked to the Air Boss about it. Then, on Sunday during the Houston show, a P-51 cut through the middle of the bomber formation at the same altitude as the bombers. This wasn’t planned or briefed and it allegedly happened because of something the Air Boss directed the P51 to do on the radio. Unfortunately, because this happened on Sunday, there was no debrief after flying, so no one ever talked about this incident.
