We determine all natural operators D transforming general connections Γ on fibred manifolds Y → M and torsion free classical linear connections ∇ on M into general connections D(Γ,∇) on the second order jet prolongation J2Y → M of Y → M.

The author uses the concept of the first principal prolongation of an arbitrary principal filter bundle to develop an alternative procedure for constructing the prolongations of a class of the first-order -structures. The motivation comes from the almost Hermitian structures, which can be defined either as standard first-order structures, or higher-order structures, but if they do not admit a torsion-free connection, the classical constructions fail in general.
