Yes you are wrong! The Generic course was infact designed as a direct result from the findings of the AASS and then approved by TGDA, Innsworth. The team had a loadie on it as well, so no bias was applied, so back in your box R 21. (Is that your age by the way?)
The course content was agreed after extensive consultation with all specialisations and that's why there's no spec phase for rotary studes on 55 Sqn anymore. The bottleneck is with Shawbury who are stuck with piggybacking loadies onto a contracted course for pilots, which isn't very efficent for getting guys through, but produces a high quality product who is ready to then go through a demanding OCU.
The divide between loadies and AEOps will always exist no matter what, but naive remarks only do damage to those who still wish to become NCA, no matter what specialization they may end up as, think on.....
