AF Form 4018 - Computed Air Release Point Computations

AF Form 4018 - Computed Air Release Point Computations serves as a computation form used to calculate the release point for aerial delivery of cargo or equipment.

This form includes sections for entering mission-specific data, including altitude, airspeed, wind speed and direction, and cargo weight. It is used to determine the optimal release point for delivering cargo from an aircraft during an airdrop operation.

An example scenario for using AF Form 4018 is during a military airdrop mission, such as supplying troops in a remote area. This form helps aircrews calculate the precise release point to ensure that the cargo reaches its intended destination accurately and safely.
