One could argue that what does a FJ CAS know about the issues of RW or AT fleets?
Airmanship.
Flight Safety.
The value of training.
Acceptance that appropriate preparation requires financing.
That short cuts cost lives.
That Haddon-Cave is a man to be respected.
I know of at least one individual commanding an aviation support unit who has none of these assets and as such, is a liability.
however unlike the views of previous high ranking officers, would this person not be better to come from an Eng or Logs background rather than having just been a 'stick-monkey'?
Believe me; that is your worst nightmare. AAC - FAA - RAF aviators, who cares; but postmen should stick to posting letters and fluffing duvets.
