Many on here simply cannot comprehend how broken the RAF is; a despised CAS, broken infra, pensions push (perceived or real), and don’t start on the stupidity of selection to join..
The RAF needs its claws, (Ops), and it needs to grow, (Cap), but more than anything it needs leadership, and whilst everyone says they’re a leader, they don’t quite get the difference of leadership by rank, and leadership by ability.
At this moment in time, we need a people person, backed up by two solid AMs. AM Knighton is the best of the bunch, and being non-badged he actually has a track record in leadership. The badged had it all to play for, they just didn’t have a spine when it was required.
