Have you heard of this pesky little idea of sequestration? For the sake of your log books, you'd either be deep into work ups or deployed.

It will be interesting to see the effects. I know when I showed up a year ago, they had just gotten off cruise, and we kept hearing that flight hrs were going to shut down (like some of our sister squadrons) once Q1 was over. That came and went, and we have kept the pace ever since, minus some of the night burn X's. To be honest, the amount of hours haven't noticeably gone up since we started workups last fall either IMO. But sequestration will surely be a different ballgame coming from a much higher level.

Interesting what they consider tier A and B, such as cancelling Blue Angel airshows and Fleet Week participation are not the first things to go, yet 3/4th quarter aircraft maintenance is. And for my clarification, what do they mean by such cancellation? I and D level stuff?
These schools lead to additional or subsequent NECs that are generally required (or seen as very enhancing) for promotion to First.
Thread Split? "Sequestration and You...."
Apparently training = mission essential does not apply to our Sailors. In order to get TAD money to send a young AME2 to follow on career school, I now must submit justification paperwork THROUGH air wing to CNAF.

CAP'd them
TADs to conferences are going away, but otherwise, game on.
