Tutors grounded?

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:

Could you imagine being flown by an AM!

My missus got flown by him when she was at Odiham camp when he was still the station commander.

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.

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’.
