More good putdowns for obnoxious yoof:

1. When serving with a Middle Eastern Air Force, one of the "contract officers" was ex RAF and (before that) ex RCAF.
Spotty, obnoxious seconded officer (NOT me) put down by him with: "Listen sonny, I've been in more Air Forces than you've been on squadrons.."

2. New, bright-eyed straight from RAFC Plt Off (also not me) arrives on first OCU/Sqn.

Aged SL Flt Lt greets him with: "Ah .... Bloggs .... you're new here aren't you?"
Plt Off, brightly: "Yes I am!"
ASLFL: "Well don't f*kcing forget it!!"
