Quote from: Ned on April 20, 2024, 05:50:41 AMFWIW, using height/weight information is far less intrusive than actually having to tape members at a weekly meeting.
Not everyone would be comfortable with having another member measure their waist size using the USAF/DoD standards.
Quote from: skymaster on April 19, 2024, 08:59:49 PMI find it somewhat ironic that, as a officer of the Georgia State Guard Air and Space Force (whose uniform policies follow USAF and Air National Guard standards), I can wear a minimally distinctive OCP uniform NOW and still be in fully within State DOD regs, but must wear Corporate uniforms when performing Federal CAP duties. I sincerely hope that the day comes when I can wear the same OCP uniforms and just change out the velcro name, branch, and grade to wear it performing CAP duties

As I realize now the 2PFDU is the nomex OCP not the green two piece we have in the Navy. I wonder if the blue 2P massifs were considered?
Doubtful. I found that likely a good portion of the people involved with uniform policy outside of general members making recommendations are....somewhat ignorant of current uniforms in real world applications and related technological advances. The only reason Massif flight jackets were added was because of a few people who wear them were able to be involved with one of the drafts.
Oh yeah, Massif jackets both green and OCP were in the draft. I believe they were retained.

I thought there was a reg but wouldn't have expected it there and not one of the more common operational regulations

Quote from: CAPR 60-1, Para 8.3.1.3Orientation flights will not be credited toward any pilot ratings (solo, private pilot, etc.).Emphasis mine.
Quote from: Mobius1_Fox2 on April 18, 2024, 08:05:28 PMWhile there isn't a specific CAP regulation that pointedly prevents logging orientation flights as flight instruction time, the guide does specifically state that orientation flights are "educational but not conducted as formal flight training" in CAPP 60-40 section 1.2.3. In addition, CAP Standard 71-1 outlines the approved syllabi for initial flight training, so the orientation flights themselves cannot be considered flight training since they don't fall within the CAP/DO-approved Part 61 training programs.
Edit: Found another relevant section in the regulation that might be the "catch-all" for not logging orientation flight time towards your hours.
From CAPR 70-1 6.1.1:
"CAP flight training shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of 14 CFR 61
and the guidance contained in: CAPS 71-1, Aircrew Training, Airplane, CAPS 71-2, Aircrew Training,
Glider, CAPS 71-3, Aircrew Training, Balloon and CAPS 71-6, Aircrew Training, Cadet Wings, as
appropriate."
