I would just like to say that finally the GCI world in the RAAF has been recognised for the tireless and challenging work that we have been doing for the past two decades.
Not only have we been awarded a full brevet recognising our aviation expertise, our pay and condition's have also gone up to in some cases match the fast jet pilots of the RAAF (rightly so in my opinion).
For too long we (ACO's) have been the butt of all jokes and ignored by our peers in the aircrew world, but they will definately need to sit up and take note now as we are 'doing the real job' in deployments overseas.
Enjoy the training area.
