Sounds like a good scheme!
Only1leftmate - You bring the aircraft to a reasonably serviceable state by totally revamping the completely useless spares backup and supply (sic) system. We had a jet here unserviceable for a few days. The part had to (HAD TO) come from somewhere in England (not the jet's home base) and it HAD TO be delivered via the recognised carrier. It took so long to get here, the aircrew could have driven home to northern Scotland, had a meal and a good night's sleep in their own beds, collected the part and still arrived back before the "recognised carrier" had fulfilled its contract.
ExF11 & Jambo Jet - I suspect that "they" will punish PVRs by putting the guilty ungratefuls back to a lower pay scale (like Acting Pilot Officer!!).
I also attended a "roadshow" about retention a while back. We were asked "What can the RAF do to retain aircrew?"
The answer was given "The very fact that you are still asking us the same question after 10 years is indicative of the fact that you are STILL not listening to the shop floor! Make the Airforce life more attractive than the outside world!!"
