COMMANDER'S CORNER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Right, this new section is where I tell you all how you’re doing.

As a squad our activity is good, however we do seem to be suffering from occasional dips. I’m once again I’m going to talk about the Squadron’s Standing Orders.

They appear on the Squadrons website and are posted in every Weekly Report. There is no excuse for not knowing them.
While I won’t have you removed for the occasional lax week, repeated failure to comply will result in removal. I don’t want Eta to be just another average squad. The Standing Orders are our code of conduct, and by following them we can get ahead and stay there.
You can fly two free missions in about 30-45 minutes, and that’s being generous. Flying on hard is not required unless it’s for a comp and we need scores.
Activity does not have to be solely flying. In fact I’d like to see people being innovative. Write some fiction; create a graphic; make a custom battle or free mission. Come up with something else if you can.
That’s all for now.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STANDING ORDERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, they have finally been made official. So anyone basically not following them are subject to being removed.

1. I expect all FMs to contact their Flight Leaders at least once a week, either by email, ICQ or IRC etc.

2. I expect everyone to participate in all competitions, except when there is a clash with important RL events, i.e. exams, illness etc
3. I want everyone to fly at least one battle or two free missions a week, alternatively you can create graphics, write fiction or create missions as long as the effort is the same as flying a battle or mission. Competition TFRs count as double, so you only need to fly one free mission if it's for a comp.

4. Flight Leaders - You will report to me at the end of each week detailing which of members of their flight have or haven't reported in and what they've done during the past week. Also, you will pass on to me any TFRs, fiction, graphics etc. you receive from your pilots.

5. Flight leaders - You are expected to be an example to your flight members and should typify what they are trying to become. I expect regular contact from you and input into how the squadron should be run and any changes that could be made for the better.

It doesn't take long to fly 2 free missions, you can even do it on easy if you must, you only need to fly on hard when it's a comp and scores are important.
