The rationale behind Ks first,
Js second is a preferance for TAC flying rather than route. I know the J is gradually developing a TAC role but the general consensus seems to be that although it will inherit 70s TAC role relatively soon it will not be given an SF role for quite some time. I would not have minded a crack at 47 and its not like I would miss out on the J since all Herc crews will end up there eventually.
My ideal posting would be somewhere with a good variety of interesting Dets, weeks and months away don't bother me and preferably not always seeing the world via night-stops in 4star hotels, a little time in each place would be nice.
Some info about Dets would be nice and the social life on the Sqns.
Cheers Lads.
