Fire Flyer told us that distribution of the new structural ensemble would begin in March.

We are now about to enter May.

Has distribution started and, if so, where has it been distributed?

I would have thought it was only common decency to keep CFA members informed if a promised timeline is not met.

Hi Anonymous. The previously stated timelines regarding the measuring program commencing in March, with finished ensembles to be rolled out on a brigade by brigade basis planned to commence in May 2008, were fully reliant on obtaining stakeholder sign off regarding the final design.

To date, official acceptance of the Final Design has not been obtained from all stakeholders and therefore the distribution program has not yet commenced. It is anticipated that the field measuring program will begin during May. Cheers, Fire Flyer.
