The July edition of the Ex's Open Cockpit is now available at http://members.gocivilairpatrol.com/news/exs_open_cockpit/index.cfm
Some highlights on issues discussed on CAPTalk:
The new CAP Officer Basic Course (replacement for ECI-13) should be available by Dec. 31.
The national DDR program had an extremely un-impressive blurb about how they stand ready to support unit and outreach activities. No accmomplishments?
The K-6 program (ACE) is scheduled to go nationwide for the 2009-10 school year. With the "test" program having 7,000 participants, it seems like this might be on its way to being a MAJOR program.
Volunteer going quarterly in 2010. There will be a daily online version "VolunteerNow"
Doing refurbs on 6 172s and buying 19 182s. Getting 38 new vehicles.
For you Marketing types who complain about national, they're looking for a new volunteer Marketing Advisor.
Working on cadet "CFI" issue.
Work on major revision to 39-1 continuing (No expected completion date given - big surprise). Might establish a "uniform" column in the new online newsletter.
Plus a reminder of the 30 September deadline for ICs, MSOs and LOs to complete ICS 400.
