UAS 's to close (Merged)

[Skylark4]

BEagle,
What has come over you. You are WRONG.
The University Air Squadron is staffed by "normal" serving RAF Officers, all QFIs except for the odd one who was as above but has now "retired" and been reincarnated one rank lower and is a Civvie in Uniform. (Sorry, can't remember the correct technical term for this.)

The Air Experience Flight is commanded by a full time RAFVR officer, the only full time member of the Flight, supported by volunteer pilots who must have gained Service Wings (any Service) and may be serving or retired members of the forces.
Admittedly, some of these can be a bit gash, blokes like Cliff Spink, Sir Roger Austin, the late Ken Hayre(sp?).

The Aircraft are the same ones shared between the two competing users.

Edited to add:-
The C.O. of the only AEF Flight I have any knowledge of, a man of vast experience, his last posting before "retirement", in a training role, personally vets any applicants, does their conversion to type and continuously monitors their performance. I have known him to sack pilots who were not performing as required.
