From my time at Shearwater (LTC) so far it would appear that.... Vous avez raison!
OMG I'm starting to think in French....next year the assimilation will be complete! ;D
I've asked for clarification when it comes to the CADPAT rainjacket or the middle weight one and this new policy. In aircrew world, mixing of the CADPAT jackets/1 pc flying suit/wedge is the norm but once we 1 wing folks get our 2 pc CADPAT flying threads, it won't matter much. When I wear the 1 pc flying suit, I wear a wedge (beret with the 2 pc, naturally)and if it's raining, I wear the rainjacket. It does look spiffy and the looks I get from all the non-AF types is either of disgust (nah) or envy. I'd go more with envy. ;D
I call BS. No one around here with hair that doesn't meet dress regs, and I work in Shearwater everyday.
As for the CADPAT rain jackets or coats with flying suits, it's approved dress. I can't seem to find the CANAIRGEN on it, but I know it came out last year. I wear my CADPAT jackets quite often, the flying jackets are too short and not waterproof.
Would you prefer we wear bright yellow rain jackets like the navy does?

That was my attempt at humour there Inch.....this guys' hair was longer than the navy and army have it and he had a square back cut that is generally frowned on in the Navy. I just came over from Stad so I'm in culture shock...the Navy doesn't wear the canary suit walking out btw...it's for shipboard use only.
