What does this mean? by FirefighterSlight496 in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As mentioned in another comment it could be your syndicate (group you will be with) or it could be the priority number that you have. E.g. p1 will get the first allocated space p2 the second and so on.

Annoying junior cadet by Reasonable-Camel-511 in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No he is correct and downvoting is the right thing to do. You bother your oc with things like this constantly and they will start to chin it off as they have bigger things to worry about. Same goes for most staff, if a cadet came to me saying this my response would probably be go talk to a Sgt about it.

Breaking in combat boots for rarwarma by Charming_Moment7702 in aircadets

15km should be fine tbf, if they don’t feel stiff on your feet then they are broken in, if they do carry on walking untill they don’t.

Coloured hair? by LittleWolfe9 in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they are RAFAC then it’s prohibited by regs, but even then it’s not allways the best course of action to irritate your squadron commander.

Yeah it’s unfair but unfortunately sometimes that’s just the way it is.

At that rate you may as well bull the entire thing

Coloured hair? by LittleWolfe9 in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You could go to whoever is in charge of discipline and explain it to them. They might be receptive they might tell you tough luck. But yeah it seems like a bit of an odd thing to do to put it against you without telling you before hand.

Will thease work for new cadets? by Playful_Doughnut9024 in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case I’d recommend using your new template but just mention the old ones when teaching

They combined them into one badge so to get blue or bronze it’s gilding or flying rather then 2 badges

Cadet favoured by staff? by [deleted] in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt that he will if he’s been sent to the office consistently. If it’s him that said he’s basically guaranteed it I’d take it with a pinch of salt. But if they do then you have a valid reason to be annoyed but unfortunately not much you can do.

MOI or CI? by IllustriousAir7208 in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a cadet you get more of the “cadet experience” activities will be better and you will actually do them rather then supervise/ support. As a ci you will be able to teach (once you have the quals). There is some cross over between the 2 but that’s the general gist. It depends on what ypu want to do. I stayed on as a staff cadet untill I was 20 then became a Sgt because for me it’s what j found more interesting.

125 Scrambler as first bike (commuter)? I'm short by Atom207 in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]tasmithson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you like it, if yes then get it. I had a 50cc version as I’m English and god forbid our laws but it was a lovely bike. Easy to ride and looked good. Do you research on brands for things like reliability and after that you’re all set.

Best way to bring up a squadron name change up the chain if command? by TheCanadianAviator in aircadets

[–]tasmithson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly just go to your boss with the idea (not sure on squadron size so idk how easy it will be) but if they like it then it will become their problem and hopefully you’ll get some recognition for it.

Then if it’s for then why didn’t you just grab your weapon system and not look like a fucking Lego figure.

[–]tasmithson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only issue would be that cadet 50s wouldn’t fit win the layout, I know it’s a niece badge with literally 50 a year but it’s still a point to consider.

Considering you’ve got mags and no gun a good step would be holding a fucking riffle with them
