Training Risky,

Yep, it was you who missed it! And yes, you are over reacting. Having a go at a squadron as it is an EFTS unit as opposed to a FJ conversion unit is a bit childish.

And neither 54 or 56 have any aircraft, they may differ in one letter but Wander00 you must realise the massive difference that one letter means in their role and size? They use the Waddington aircraft as a pooled fleet.

Wensleydale,

I think that the whole reason for dropping the Reserve monika is that these squadrons aren't actually reserve at all. They also now can accrue seniority, which as Reserve Squadrons they couldn't.
