The primary responsibility of crewmembers in terms of situational awareness revolves around understanding and maintaining awareness of mission requirements and flight regulations. Situational awareness is critical for ensuring that all actions taken by the crew align with the objectives of the mission and comply with necessary regulations guiding flight operations.

Having a clear understanding of mission objectives allows crew members to make informed decisions, anticipate potential challenges, and effectively communicate with one another. This ultimately enhances the operational effectiveness and safety of the flight. Additionally, being well-versed in flight regulations ensures that all maneuvers and actions adhere to legal and safety standards, reducing the likelihood of incidents and enhancing operational integrity.

While safety and operating procedures, crew morale, and securing equipment are all important aspects of crew responsibilities, they are secondary to the foundational knowledge of mission requirements and regulations that drive safe and effective helicopter operations.
