Utter rubish...
If that were the case then we would give GR7's to the Army also.
At the end of the day SH pilots (of which I am one) are well paid, well trained taxi drivers who get shot at every now and then.
Yes we need to have an understanding of the ground picture, and the 'commanders intent', but leave the Find/Fix/Strike function of AH to the Army, and the humping/dumping to SH and CHF. We have many years of experience and both do it bloody well...
