Personnel at Cannon AFB to wear flight suits only during flight duties

Col. Albert M. Elton II, commander of the 27th Special Operations Wing, issued a memo earlier this month ordering all airmen not to wear flight suites at Cannon Air Force Base unless they are on flight duties.

Flight duties include preparation, preflight, in-flight, post-flight and other flight related duties associated with both manned aircraft and RPV operations, Elton said.

His order came after a Captain argued that his should allowed to wear flight suits whenever he and other pilots like.
