temper temper love. I don't give a f**k whether you're good natured or not. You sound like a w@nker to me. Oh and I forgot a smiley there. Never mind.

He can get the answer he wants right here. TA only fly gazelles therefore no rear crew. Ground crew is contracted out. 6 Regt are TA, but have no aircraft and will do groundcrew duties. 7 Regt will be folded on 31 March next year due to people in london thinking it will be cheaper for Apache crews to do their ABFAC training in Apaches rather than gazelles.

My earlier point referred to the fact that if he is in the TA, he might be able to transfer across to the regulars as rear crew on a long-term engagement - although it is theoretically possible, in the way that travelling at half-light speed is theoretically possible, I doubt that it will happen in my lifetime.
