When operating in cell formation, who is the primary point of contact for position reports?

In a cell formation, the primary point of contact for position reports is designated to the cell leader. This is because the cell leader has the responsibility to maintain situational awareness and ensure the coordination of the entire formation. The cell leader serves as the focal point for communication, relaying information and updates about the formation's status, position, and any changes in flight plan or operations to Air Traffic Control (ATC) and other relevant parties. This structure streamlines communication and prevents confusion, as having a single point of contact ensures that all information is managed efficiently. Other pilots within the formation rely on the cell leader to communicate on their behalf, which enhances the overall effectiveness of the group's operations and adherence to safety protocols.
