Just continuing with some additional information to Jag's.

The UAS and AEF are basically run seperately, but just share the Tutors. The UAS instructors are all current military QFIs. Some are spec aircrew but the main point is they are not civilian trained (and I certainly cannot remember them ever being in my lifetime).

The AEF doesn't instruct per se. It is there to give air experience flights to the cadet organisations. Although many of the pilots are QFIs, they do not have to be qualified as such. However, the bummer for Flying Doc, is that in order to join the AEF as a pilot you must have been awarded your military flying wings, so it does rule out civilian trained pilots, whether they are QFIs or not. Sorry.

And......
