Does this 23 year old hear charges, sort family issues out etc etc.
I’d take a seasoned EngO over most aircrew, they have to do people as well as power sets.
Precisely, they are two different things, an Engineering Officer will be in charge of all aspects of a Squadron Groundcrew from managing issues with their accommodation, personal life, allocation of resources, forward planning and even looking after the aircraft and ensuring availability etc etc etc, something that a pilot will not get involved in until they reach Sqn Boss status.
