More thread drift.
When I was searching for something else this morning g@@gle came up with an FOI request from 2019 regarding seniority of dormant squadrons. The top three 216, 201 and now 22 have all been reactivated. The next three
adstantes are 23, 43(F) and 111(F). (hat, coat ...)
Those squadrons which were used as (R) numberplates gained no additional seniority.
"The former Reserve squadrons began to accrue seniority from 1 February 2018; they will not be able to retrospectively reclaim the time that they spent as a Reserve squadron. Former Reserve squadrons will be able to apply to readopt any other designators that they have held in the past."
