Chapter 9: Conclusion

This document sets forth the vision upon which the RCAF will sustain its FG mission through the establishment of its FAFTS. It lays out the foundation for a streamlined governance and management model within a system of systems that continues to evolve to provide the RCAF with sustainable, well-supported and agile means of generating aerospace forces. Through a capitalization on TEL, renewed management and governance, new OTI, and a focus on sustainability, the FAFTS will provide the degree of flexibility and scalability that will enhance readiness to meet the challenges of a complex and uncertain global threat environment and the consequent, rapidly evolving operating environment. In treating the FAFTS as a distinct capability of its own, the five enabling strategies outlined herein, from Chapters 4 to 8, will ensure the continued success of the RCAF's future operations while bringing about necessary increased training efficiencies and better stewardship of the resources assigned to the Department.

With the concerted effort of the air and space divisions, other FD capability initiatives, aviation stakeholders and support organizations as well as centralized oversight by the RCAF TA, the RCAF will achieve its vision of a FAFTS. It will be an integrated system of training aligned with the FD, FG and FE systems that is based on sustainable, scalable and flexible system-design principles; rooted in our RCAF heritage, ethos and leadership philosophy; and enabled by technology for world-class excellence in operations.
