You are being a little unfair regarding the medical side. Under the new regime on the interim contract, the winchmen are being trained to the same standard as the RAF winchmen and on the same courses, all winchmen will have qualified well before 2012.

I fully agree that a full NVG capability rather than just the back seat crew having the capability would be a major advantage and feel quite sure that common sense will prevail to achieve this. I only hope everyone comes together to achieve that rather than spending so much time bickering.
