If one has made the decision to leave, PVR or other, I suggest that there's little which could be offered which would change that decision.With less than a year to my 38/16 point I was offered the "first operational Tornado Sqn" which at the time would have been the Dambusters Sqn., but it was too late, my wife and I had made our plans. As these centred on family, schooling, house purchase etc., the flattering offer of a front line flying tour from a ground tour and the prospect of flying to 50+ was far too late. If that offer had been made at my 38/16 Air Sec's interview 18 months earlier............ However it perhaps typifies MOD/RAF management skills, an area I suggest which has not improved since that time.
