Wrong. We’re talking about a RAFAC uniform not an RAF one. CCF are a school run organisation as well as an HQAC run one and so live in a hybrid state.
Historically they’ve included a school identifier patch on the left arm, which cadets still do but CFAVs are no longer able to under the new rules.
There are still sections on the introduction of PTS and CFC, by now are these not just the standard?
It’s the RAF uniform, with minimum modifications to distinguish cadets and CFAVs from active personnel.
I presume CFAVs don’t wear school identifiers on Nos. 1, 2, and 5 SD — why would they need to in 3s?
No but the cadets do (including No1s)
Because the other sections do and they do it for a combined identity across the sections of the contingent.
And don’t forget you can now have the RAFAC Formation Badge on your left now 
Check p155. Shows School Badge as an acceptable badge on left blanking patch, so I’d say wear the School one or purple diamond if no school badge exists.
I would imagine adults are supposed to have the purple diamond over the school one, but obviously, yeah, if they don’t have a school one then purple it is.
I might have to take back what I said in my previous reply. At RIAT I saw a pilot with not any old RAF identity patch, but one that was clearly designed for MTP (MTP background, light tan text) with matching wings and name badge over the other pocket.
That looks like a standard flying suit wings / name patch velcroed onto a blanking plate. This was smaller, MTP with light tan embroidery, and worn over the left pocket.
that photo is fake news - that cannot be RAF pilots they are not in grow bags
While on the ling walk in the Netherlands PCS and heat illness was the topic of the week. Because our regulations specify the combat shirt and most cadets end up with the warmer temperate and caused issues with the RA for the event. All of the soldiers and most of the RAF turned up in the barrack shorts which were thinner material, of a looser cut and no zip. We were all told to dress down to one layer. The barrack shirt for the service personnel and t-shirts for the cadets. The Jacket light weight was just to thick and heavy for marching in the warmer weather.
I can see our dress regs changing to allow the barrack shirt to align with HIP policy.
If they are really serious about these sort of things they need to actually start issuing MTP. You can put anything you want in your risk assessment and policy documents, but if people are having to beg, borrow and steal their clothing they will have what they have.
If a policy change makes MTP into PPE then the organisation needs to issue it.
Must be your auto correct. Fixed that for you 
So no one got to admire the new TRF?
Looking on my wing’s road marching page, most of the cadets were still wearing the old ones anyhow.
Most of ours have the warm weather version (and mostly the Mk1 with the annoying Velcro in the sleeves), temperate shirts (and trousers) seem hard to come by in the surplus places hereabouts
Just go back to DPM?
