Gasfitter - I find you very odd!
In some ways, I admire your dogged loyalty, despite the fact you seem to be a lone voice. In a way, it is an endearing quality.
But referring to your own service as 'whinging crabfats' is har to reconcile with the above.
It's almost as if you love the RAF and the CAS, but none of the other members, and certainly none of the ones with an opinion.
Good luck when we have all gone. It may well change for the better as new blood enters with no knowledge of what the RAF used to be, but I don't think so.
Apologies for accusing you of being RN, but you do give that impression.
