From the busy hangar deck to the exciting flight deck, and even the aircraft in flight, the air boss, along with their trusted assistant, the mini-boss, oversees it all. Imagine the center of the primary flight control, also known as the tower, where the air boss and mini-boss maintain constant visual control over all aircraft within the carrier control zone. This extends from the surface of the sea to an impressive altitude of 2500 feet and is marked by a circular boundary with a radius of five nautical miles from the carrier's location. Usually, the air boss is an experienced commander who is often on the verge of becoming a captain. Wearing a distinctive working jersey, often in bright yellow, the air boss represents the dedicated personnel on the flight deck, in the hangar bay, and in aviation fuels. 

The air boss holds the power to give the green light for entering the control zone. Before anyone can start their operations, they must obtain the air boss's consent. This clearance involves crucial information such as instructions to avoid other aircraft, details about potential hazards, and specific altitude and distance limitations for safe operation. When it comes to helicopter units embarking on shipboard missions, they need to be certified by their respective unit commanders or other authorities.

The Air Boss is also in charge of arming the aircraft. It involves equipping them with weapons, and this exciting task takes place in a specifically designated area for utmost safety. When it comes to forward firing weapons and if the store's loading checklists require it, the area in front of the aircraft will be cleared and kept clear until the arming process is completed. But hold on, arming doesn't happen right away. It's a step that takes place once the aircraft has come to a complete stop and the control of the aircraft has been handed over to a supervisor from the army crew.
