I suspect that BF and his unfortunate ilk will still not be "worrying", when what little is left of the Service is finally disbanded around them.
By then they will probably have accepted dumbly , as the next stage in the process , that "RAF" - like "BAe ", is actually a meaningless term ( a mere brand name) and no longer even worth preserving for something that once existed.
Our predecessors fought for and created the first independent air force in the world and were well aware of the games of those who would seek to undermine it.
I would suggest that the deliberately, incrementally eroded, R.A.F. Officer "training" system has , of recent years, particularly since Cranwell went comprehensive , subliminally allowed compromise of this heritage and now leaves the floodgates open to those with other agendas.
