TCCOM Report #5
FA Jarek La'an, 7/3/09

My performance for the past three weeks has been below par, work, family funerals and a host of other issues have had me running around and sparing no time for consideration of the impact this would have on my duties to you all. I have a capable and willing command group in place and i have not delegated accordingly - in this the fault is entirely my own and has now been rectified.

Ill say no more of this other than to congratulate all of you for the sterling work so far, to say my inbox has been flooded with emails would not be an understatement. The period of change has continued with Fury and Flayers CMDR spots changing hands due to necessity which i hope proves that we are now a group that can no longer tolerate laxity from CMDRs and will be willing to take any measures necessary to address our problems head on.

I would like to extend personal congratulations to CPT Dante and CM RichyV for having the belief and determination to step up to the plate for their squads, and to LCM Sergeyli for his recent promotion.

I have equally been pleased to see flight activity from our flagship squadron Prae, as well as a host of other pilots and squads. The same message goes for the IWATS confirmations that have begun to trickle in. Astin has done, and continues to do, a fine job in bringing IWATS up from the ashes.

On a similar note the SOO has just finished what will likely be the final edit of the new TC Pilot Manual, a handy PDF explaining the nuts and bolts of this group. You can expect to see this in the next few days, along with a host of awards and comp details for activity past and hopefully future in turn.

MWEs are due and should be completed asap, so CMDRs should be adding final touches to their MSEs so we can get the rewards out to those pilots who deserve them. I have the previous Chal MWEs that were not processed and will be retrodatign awards for these along with their most recent MWE when it passes through the SOOs office.

I am continuing in my optimism for the future of the TC as a viable group and looking forward to the months ahead. Should my own activity at any point be any less than adequate then you are all my checks and balances and i expect you to be vocal, suffering in silence is never an option so always feel free to voice your concerns to me - I have an open door policy and as the manual says i am responsible for the General State of the TC - a duty that encompasses a range of functions, pilot morale being integral.

In conclusion Id like to add additional congratulations and my own personal gratitude to Dempsey for her receipt of the Imperial Cross in recognition of her services to the TC in creating the group site and database and continually striving to provide a better and more effecient system. I remain indebted to her

Regards,
