You have concurred with my own opinion perfectly in your last post. You mention flying with someone you describe as a natural pilot who has difficulties with his level of english.
How do you know that back in 1983-86 you didn't stop 2 very similar pilots from joining the RAF?
I would like to think the chap you fly with is an asset to the RAF even though he never going to be in the final of Countdown.
The picture I wanted to get across to Harri was that there are many more important things to deal with as a front-line pilot than worrying about the anal side of defence writing.
I agree that as an officer one needs a minimum grasp of the English language, however, it is a shame people like yourself take that minimum to their own personal extremes.
Try not to lose focus on the big picture!
Rant over also.
