As for the next CAS - I hope it goes to the best officer for the job. Saying that, the officer that you mention was a fine Combat Air QWI, so certainly has a good operational pedigree, but I care not what they look like. It has to go to the person that is best for the role and we should be past the male/female thing as in the 21st century most people don’t feel a need to keep heralding normal behaviour (maybe the Services need to catch up!).
