I rather liked the pre-Binbrook model.
Ops Wg is all very well but it distracts from the real business of AIR COMD which is FLY.
So rename Ops Wg as Flying Wing.
Now Engineering Wing is a misnomer. They don't engineer anything, why, they are even manned by technicians. So rename them Technical Wing.
Now Technical Wing, which has no actual core function - they don't fly - should be wholly subordinate to Flying Wg so they only need a Station Technical Officer of sqn ldr rank.
With the reduction in supporting wg cdrs do we really need a full blown Admin Wg? Evidently not as it is now Base Support Wing. Well we could make OC BSW a gp capt on the USAF model or revert to the Station Admin Officer, another sqn ldr.
While we are getting rid of wg cdrs how about giving sqn ldrs some real responsibility. Flt ls too. In fact flt lts sometime get to control 4-ships, and even 8-ships if we got that many aircraft airborne, so call them flt cdrs and let the rest be simple fliers.
A fg off is really what life is all about.
What about pay? Simple, PAS pay from age 25 and funded from all those redundant penguin wg cdrs.
