I went to a briefing by fast jet aircrew yesterday. It was directed mostly at REMFs who the FJ chaps would like to see being more flexible and supportive. But it was pitched to read 'please let's all help each other'. The briefing was 90% well presented and 10% garbage.. .. .There was the usual fobbing-off of the wrong aircraft types on the slides and mis-quoting mission packages that most of the groundcrew weren't expected to understand. That's probably to be expected. But when the roles of other aircraft types in theatre were entirely misrepresented the 10 percentile of garbage came out. End result? The division of groundcrew v aircrew now further divided into groundcrew v FJ v ME.. .. .We are not all here to support the aircrew and the aircraft. We are all here to support the aircraft.. .. .We need to stop the point scoring and get on with our jobs. No one part of the machine is any more or less important than the next.. .. .Now, someone bring me a bacon sandwich.... . . . <small>[ 29 March 2002, 13:29: Message edited by: D-IFF_ident ]</small>
