BLAND
The RAF I knew was full of eccentrics- aircrew who lived life to the full ,loved flying and worked ,when necessary,24/7
A can do attitude prevailed,squadron morale was high- and the Reds ( love them or hate them) were admired (and envied) by us all. Their skill acquired by HARD WEEKEND WORK was the envy of all who love aviation. They were ,and still are,the stars of the show and most of us would love to have been good enough to be selected for THE team.
Everyone knew that they were prima donnas but no one really cared a stuff! It was all part of a healthy inter unit rivalry.
They are the envy of other forces and endlessly ,with their faultless displays ,show the RAF off at its best.
Do we really want to disband this team,the pride of the nation,and end up with a bland - politically correct- woke force of nonentity?
