Just who are you, Poison Arrow, to threaten the studes in this way; maybe you meant your post to be humerous, if so you failed badly. Just because a bunch of studes (and their QFIs?) try to put a bit of spirit into things you demonstrate the antideluvian attitudes that are not part and parcel of todays flying training system. No wonder the studes look to going to Valley with some trepidation, I suggest you have a look at one of the course badges currently on display at Linton which partly describes their feelings.
Maybe you've had some connection with 74, I don't know, but what you must realise is that 74 ceased to be a 'real' outfit when it disbanded with Lightnings, albeit a slight redemption with the F4.
A question: do you display your attitude to members of the RAFs current Tiger Sqn?
