The RAF is a different beast - man the equiment vs equip the man/lady
I hope that your comment is an attempt at banter or fishing with a bent nail, because it could not be further from the truth.
The RAF of today will always focus on the man/lady, their attributes, capabilities, skills, education, team and leadership abilities from the outset. An applicant will no more get to handle a calculator until the required minimum standards are attained.
