Perhaps the Pongos views are jaded as the only Air assets they see tend to be the non glamorous, non sexy and utterly essential stuff like A/T and C130's. They also suffer when it breaks down, and wonder why it is that the RAF is getting 232 shiny new Typhoons when it can't keep more than 15 of its predecessors deployed at once, and when it can't afford to fund the AT replacement?

Not that I've wasted days of my life suffering at the hands of the movers in the Middle East of course...
