My bold. The key thing here is there hasn’t been an email sent to everyone. Not everyone checks sharepoint announcements. So if you haven’t seen it on there you might not know what’s going on at all!
Yes there has been communication, but once again is relying on people keeping up to date with SharePoint.

              You’ve hit the nail on the head @JoeBloggs  - it appears almost as though RAFAC are using ACC as their official comms dissemination system.
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
                 
                 
              
           
          
            
            
              it is certainly the fastest, most comprehensive and often most accurate source I have for the organisation!

              I would expect to see it in todays Weekly Comms
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
                 
                 
              
           
          
            
            
              
Which (currently) is also not emailed out and only on sharepoint announcements! See here:
  
  
    @Wizzle  moving the conversation about distribution back over here. (correct thread this time) 
You are 100% being lied too if you’re being told it can’t be sent to all personal accounts. Just today I’ve received two emails regarding teams going down. I assume that went to all personal accounts, not just mine!

              Could you imagine being flown by an AM!

              I think the more senior they are, the more relaxed they become about rank and such.
I had some cadets on camp flown by Air Marshall Sir “Dusty” Miller, and all of them said how friendly and down to earth he was, and how much they enjoyed their flight.

              My first AEF flight was with an Air Commodore. My first class Cadet brain couldn’t comprehend how senior they were

              Where’s that messaging come from? None received this end.
             
            
               
               
               
            
            
                 
                 
              
           
          
            
            
              Depending on who you asked, that was the messaging coming down all along. It’s ‘Plan to go flying, but don’t expect to go flying’.
