My CP-140 red pages say "land as soon as practicable"
Continued flight is not recomended. The aircraft should land at the first site at which a safe landing can be made.
Extended flight is not recomended. The landing site and flight duration are at the discretion of the aircraft captain.

inferno said:Quick question, I know the airforce is less "uniform" then say the army. And aircrew is especially less uniform, different patches in the same squadrons, different style nametags, different style wings, 2pc vs 1pc flight suits, different generations and materials of jackets.
But now is there a reason they wear red, blue, and white tshirts at 410.. or is it just a "lets make it look more like TopGun for the cameras?
SupersonicMax said:I heard that red, blue and white had a signification. Blue were for Standards officers (those who do the flight tests), red for line instructors and white for students. That way, by a simple look, you know who you are faced with.
CDN Aviator said:I dont see how people could mistake anyone for someone they are not. No other OTU in this country seems to have a problem differentiating between students, instructors and standards personel.
SupersonicMax said:CDN Aviator, why do airforce have olive green flight suits and army as relish uniforms? That's identity purposes. That's the way it was in MJ before the blue shirts. I assume it was the same kind of deal at 410.

SupersonicMax said:God, you really can't understand what I mean. Why do we have a blue DEU and the Army a green? Why do we have different shoulder patches? Why do I have a different patch than my friends in an other flight? Do I really need a patch to tell they are in an other flight?
Good2Golf said:Different colours are for parades...simple as that - there is absolutely no functional reason for blue/green/black. Operators wear operational clothing - form follows function. If you have the possibility of becoming foot-borne and having to "shoot, move, communicate", you will appreciate looking as much like your Army brethren as possible, hence why aviators will be moving to the 2-pc CADPAT flying suit in the near future. If you don't like it, just make sure you don't flunk out of Cold Lake.
Canuck aviators will look very similar to our brothers to the South (CADPAT variant vs. A2CU)

SupersonicMax said:G2G, I'm not saying I don't like it. I'm trying to explain why would aircrew in MJ would use Red/White/Blue t-shirts under the flying suit. Some seem to say it's something that would warrant Crucifixion. I'm just trying to make the point that people like to have a feeling of "apartenance" towards their unit, and it was a way to do that.

Good2Golf said:They shouldn't. CANAIRGEN directs all to wear the standard dark blue t-shirt. If you don't, you're not clicking your heels to CAS' direction.
