Double Wing

Bit of background info for those who care.

The idea for the change came from a NAVIGATOR, so don't blame us pilots...yes, it was approved by a pilot (CAF) however it was a bunch of civvies and a Navigator that came up with the idea. The concept was two fold. First to assist with recruiting as it was identified by potential recruits as something that may affect their decision to become a Navigator. The second justification was rather than continuing to create wings for all those "new" Officer Aircrew categories ie Airborne Fighter Controller etc and the fact they may end up the same cat anyway, why not give them the same brevet.
