Aircraft "Captain"
From the RAF recruitment site:
A WSO Says: ‘As the aircraft captain I’m responsible for everybody on board. In some respects, a Nimrod crew is like a sports team on tour, especially when we’re overseas. As the team captain, I have to organise accommodation, transport, local currency and so on. The camaraderie, the banter and the professionalism are terrific – I have a great crew.’
Now the guy starts off as the "Aircraft Captain".. I might be retarded here... or missing the point (not unusual!) but I always thought that the Captain usually occupies the LHS at the pointy end.
Whats the world coming to? Or was that a typo (as I suspect)?
