Official Standing Orders

Anyone not following these is subject to being removed immediately.

1. All FMs should be in regular contact with me and their Flight Leaders at least once a week via email, ICQ, or IRC etc.

2. I expect everyone to participate in all competitions, except when there is a conflict with important RL events. If you're planning on taking a leave, make sure you update your personal profile by activating your Leave Status.

3. I want everyone to be as active as they can by flying, creating graphics, writing fiction, or creating missions, etc.

4. All Flight Leaders 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. You shall forward me any TFRs, fiction, graphics etc. you receive from your pilots. You must fly at least 1 battle plus the competition mission every week or your status may be removed.

5. Fly on 'HARD' without cheats whenever in a competition.
