Quite right Mutley. If someone leads, someone will follow (if only out of a sense of morbid curiosity).

I would welcome anyone who wants to draw up a master template of aircraft-airfields-callsigns-frequencies-hairdos etc.

Actually, on reflection, sorry, ignore the hairdos - I have seen some of the hairdos that the youth of today sport and I would only consider wearing one if it were for a kamikaze mission.

Hairdos are optional, if you fly an F14, Ray Ban Aviators are compulsory lol 8-)

Father Cool - there deos seem to be a lot of pressure for a 'template' but none of it from me.

If anyone does want to draw one up they should feel free. I would certainly look at it, but could not guarantee to use it.

Folks hold fire on this for a short while until rhe WG defines exactly what is required and in what format. My original post spreadsheet was just a concept...

Once defined, format and content its all yours 8-) 8-)
Kind Regards

I don't see the working group defining a rigid format that mission planning must take.

In fact I wouldn't mind seeing some concrete idea of what the WG is planning to look for. All I have seen is warm but woolly words about "identifying the way ahead" or "defining the future". A little more hard detail and less "broad sunlit uplands" would encourage me no end.

All I want to see is more discipline and responsibility, and hard, specific written detail.
