LOL good work Chinny crews , I think the Kipper fleet groundies think the same in fact we are a burden to our hierachy. I know we never get a mention in RAF news we are the ones that the powers above are told to avoid. I might be wrong but thats the feeling .
Saying that I think CAS came to up north a few weeks ago and had a sortie on a jet but Im not 100% certain i was on nights, either way there were no cameras about so it must have been lies. Other shift wankers.
Anyway Typhoon will replace Nimrod in 2010 as well as the ageing Sea King fleet , in fact rumour has it Typhoon will take over the ford mondeo so im lead to beleive . If you are an officer and have banked your shares in Typhoon you are laughing as Saudi will give you as much money as you ask.
