On behalf of the Elf Aviation Academy, we write to advise you that your annual recurrent training program has been scheduled at Gander International Airport. All Scout Elves are required to report for mandatory training and ensure proficiency checks under Part 1225 of Santa’s Airworthiness Program. Children should expect their Elf to be absent for that time. This year’s Pilot Program includes critical seminars to educate and delight every Scout Elf, including: - Defensive Maneuvers to Outsmart Family Pets - Toilet Fishing for Fun and Sustenance - 1,001 Uses for Candy Canes - Stiff Limbs and Long Duty Days - The Connection - Barbie: Friend or Foe? - Rudolph’s Way: Nasal NavAids and Low Visibility Operations We understand many children will be disappointed by the temporary absence of their Christmas Elf, even for a short period. These Elves will appoint a surrogate observer in their absence to ensure kids remain on the right side of the nice list. Training is essential. As the Elf motto states: “ Safety First. Then Gingerbread.” We thank you for your prompt response to this directive and look forward to welcoming you back to the Academy. Sincerely, yours, Flush Rivet, Chief Instructor RECURRENT TRAINING ATTENTION _______________________ DATES REQUESTED ________________
