Baffled?
'As an ex-Rifleman myself I too am baffled by the continuing exsistance of the RAF Regt.'
Mike, sorry, HS.
How many aircraft do we need to lose on the ground to enemy action, when non-specialists are defending them, before your bafflement goes away? Surely, even you appreciate that as our aircraft fleet becomes smaller and the platforms become more effective, the loss of a single aircraft has an increased effect on the ability to prosecute campaigns from the air.
