Swingwing. .thanks chief. I'm just interested, but do you let your nav have a fly? Only asking because I've been considering being a nav, if it is offered to me. I'd imagine that the navs would lead much the same lifestyle as a pilot and, if in the F-111, even have a play with the stick and rudder themselves.
Do the J model Hercs need as many navs, or are they being replaced with advanced systems?
Was reading the nav info off the web, and it says that you will pretty much be given a desk job after a few years, only limited number of flying post availiable after reach Sqn Ldr. How true is this?
What about job prospects outside the RAAF for navs?
would be interesting to know
