To rename offices and the like as Sqns is disrespecting the RAF’s history and those that came before. those people fought and died as part of those Sqns.

I for one quite liked the idea of making existing Sqns Wings and the flights Sqns, that at least would realign some of the rank structure with the format.
But naming buildings after Sqns, what next, the tea trolley.
Well put Nutty, as a past member of the late and great XV Sqn it could be the new Gents WC’s Sqn what with it having the motto “Aim Sure”!
