Fair point Mr R, but what about a new fangled name for it. Maybe 'Aircrew Specialist'...pay?
Do Aicrew rcv said pay because they are 'Flying' i.e. using skills routinely in the air as part of a Sqn tour, or is it because they are Aircrew and the once proud recipient of a green suit?
Do snr Officers in Command Appts and above still recieve FP even though the chances of them straping themselves out of their MOD MB desk are perhaps slim at best?
This isn't a fishing question... just curious & naive. Sorry for thread drift.
Besides those slot machines in Vegas need a whole lotta fillin !
