Must agree with HeliAviator of the flying chacons!
Low flying, day and night, fighter evasion and NVG decks to a frigate are all a demanding, necessary skills, yet loads of fun and we get paid for it too!!!!
The debate for more dosh in the civvy world with mind numbing flying does not hold water at this time of my life - maybe when I grow up..............no, b*gger that!
A bit more of a sense of satisfaction too - moving a coy of soaking bootnecks in pants weather by yourself (cos the crabs have refused
) after they have spent a fortnight being rained on - the grins on their faces (and the beers later) made the 5 hours in the seat worthwhile!!
