California Wing E-Mail Lists

 

What Wing E-Mail Distribution Lists are available?

    California Wing uses two (2) primary E-Mail distribution lists to send information, these are:

    all@cawg.cap.gov

    REDCAP

all@cawg.cap.gov

    The ALL list is intended for announcements of general interest to all members of California Wing (i.e. airshows, training classes, SAREXs). All unit commanders, project officers, etc. are allowed to post to this list.

    File attachments need to be less than 200KB in size and should be scanned for viruses and other malware executable code prior to attaching the files to the email.

    REDCAP

    The REDCAP system is intended for Emergency Services notification and alerting. Messages received from this list are in support of official AFRCC missions. These messages provide critical information necessary for personnel performing emergency services missions. The primary intent of this list is to support alerting notification via e-mail and alphanumeric wireless devices such as pagers and cellphones. Messages sent to this list should be short and succinct. Most wireless devices have a limitation on message size.

    The REDCAP system is managed by Area of Operation (AO):

    NORTH: Encompasses Groups 2 and 5 (INLAND: Stockton and North to the Oregon border, COAST: Monterey North to Oregon border)

    CENTRAL: Encompasses Groups 4 and 6 (INLAND: San Joaquin/Central Valley, COAST: Monterey south to Santa Barbara)

    SOUTH: Encompasses Groups 1, 3 and 7 (INLAND: Mojave Desert, Palm Springs and Imperial Valley, COAST: Ventura south to San Diego/Mexican border)

    Members are not limited as to which AO they sign up for.

    Do not include any file attachments with messages to this list.
