RAF to get the Apache....
in the present climate it's too expensive - the Crabs would have to accept Army non-com pilots into their system and give them a commission. Which would bring the whole tone of the officers mess's down to rock - bottom and would raise the average IQ of the said mess's by 200%. then of course there's the increase in pay, the extra squadron personnel, and the freedoms which officers expect (Resigning with far more benefits than the non-coms)

Of course if the romour is true about Non-com pilots being introduced to the FAA and RAF things might change???
