    The correct answer is SQ/CC. The squadron commander (SQ/CC) is responsible for managing the squadron's flying crew chief program. They oversee the program and ensure that the crew chiefs are properly trained, equipped, and assigned to aircraft maintenance tasks. The SQ/CC also works closely with the maintenance superintendent to ensure the program runs smoothly and efficiently. The first sergeant and production superintendent may have roles in supporting the program, but ultimate responsibility lies with the SQ/CC.
