Share them here: https://tesseractaf.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/create/157 In Episode 1, we explore why change is necessary, what is driving the 2A Career Field Strategy, and why this moment matters. The discussion covers the operational realities facing maintenance today, the risks of maintaining the status quo, and the need to deliberately evolve how the 2A community is structured, trained, and developed. This series is different by design. It’s not a finished product—it’s an ongoing conversation with the field as the strategy takes shape. Future episodes will dive deeper into questions, concerns, and topics coming directly from maintainers across the force.
