Communication between large groups, such as the fleet, the test community, and NAVAIR, can be really challenging. However, TACAIR has found a way to keep everyone regularly informed.?Since September 2020, TACAIR has collaborated with the VX community to publish and distribute over 45 monthly SCS Bulletins.?These products help educate F/A-18E/F and EA-18G aircrew on upcoming aircraft software (SCS) changes, highlight reported issues, share troubleshooting methods and associated workarounds, and provide general “Did you know?” information. We’d like to give a big shoutout to Amy “BACON!” Heflin for her behind-the-scenes work in gathering information, editing, vetting, and publishing the SCS Bulletin.?To the aircrew who read these products, we genuinely hope that you find them helpful and informative.?We’d love to hear your feedback! If you are interested in joining the team that develops meaningful products and compelling training for fleet aircrew, we invite you to visit tacticalairsupport.com to learn more about our work and what we do!
