Not an OC of any flying training unit or even aircrew. She did attempt pilot training and went on to attempt navigator training too, so she has experience as a student before becoming an ops officer.
so she has experience of the Fg TRg system from a 'customer' point of view and she was OC Ops at Valley during the time the MFTS ball started rolling - that makes her reasonably well qualified to comment I think. She was probably privy to far more 'managerial' discussions than any of the QFIs.
