HH,
my reply
Just pointing out an example demonstrating that not all, recent, female politicians are Maggie Ts. In fact, she fit in nicely with the shambolic 'leaders' of recent years.
I never met Auntie Joan, but judging by the plaudits on here, she had the right stuff.
Good point, how on earth could a woman possibly match up to the stellar performances we are seeing from the current male world leaders...
Julia Gillard, the defence rests.

The Pentagon announced this week that Air Force Lt. Gen. Lori J. Robinson has been nominated for promotion to four-star general
ORAC - thanks again for the Neatishead video - just watched it through - must have been made just before I went to Neatishead as OC Admin Sqn in April 84. A great tour with two very good Staishes - Aunty Joan and Don Read, ex 111 Sqn boss.

Light Hours
sandiego89
In my humble opinion, yes she is very light on the hours. My total of 73.05 on the OCU was just for a WC add those and then her upgrade to MCC would average about 150. Yes she has done all the schools, Exec posts, Standards and OC posts but her experience to me is light. However as long as she would listen to her experts then I suspect she will be a very round peg in a round hole for todays Air Force's. Having worked for Auntie Joan,
I know who I would wish to work for/emulate in a career path.

I'm sure I read on this very forum board that a former CAS (Craig?) had barely 1000hrs in his log book.
Edit - see this link, my error - it appears Craig tried to get 1000 hours in a two year tour (I assume as it was a 'PN' post it was when a Vulcan CO) but mention is made of a different CAS with <1500hrs total (presumably after a minimum of flying training, a junta tour, flt cdr tour, sqn cdr tour plus the odd hour as a stn cdr). Still not much given the hours that were available 'way back then'!
