£100k FRI

A nice thought, Mrs Scott is already compiling her shopping list, but a targeted FRI will p*** off those that don't get it more than it will persuade people to stay. Besides, people's grieveances go way beyond money, they are to do with fighting wars with shoddy kit, constantly rotating through the desert, spineless leadership etc, the list is pretty endless. £59000 net for presumeably 5 years ROS is not a whole lot, unless you were planning on staying in anyway.

My intelligence (an oxymoron, surely?) says that it's still targeted at Sqn Ldrs at 38 anyway. God knows, we need a whole load more of those! I'd rather they gave it to the salt of the earth engineers any day, perhaps even bought some spares as well, then I could go flying.
