Jock Pi,
Don't sit on the fence, do you?
Like to know the rumour about being replaced by some aircrew mate. Surely they aren't going to wheel the MALM I replaced in again. Leave the old fellow alone!
I think you will find that ASCOT is slowly losing its aircrew mates to Flt Ops/TG 9. Judging by some of the posts delving back into the good old days before Flt Ops, looks like we can't do much worse (absolutely no disrespect intended to the current ASCOT aircrew mates).
Most grateful you could back up your 'Hate, simple as that' with a recent example or two.
Probably give you a few 'Aircrew, bloody awful' examples aswell. Then again, as always, it's always the odd one or two who spoil it for the rest.
Oh and for those who know me at ASCOT, what a week (or two) to go on leave, eh? How's the aircon coping?
God Bless
