SPHLC! Delighted to see you're maintaining your high standards even over there. Had they been keeping an accurate record of the ladder FI? I suspect the IPT may have overlooked that one - I had heard it was restricted to one climb only and was then due to go to Marshalls to be re-runged? You should look into it.... Another cock up by Eng Wg no doubt....
I've heard they've discussed your situation at Execs - obviously there is concern about the damage and injuries sustained. A plan is being hatched to arrange recovery back to the UK and all being well the ladder should be home by the end of the week. You, on the other hand, clearly have no idea how tough things are out there and are to spend an extra month there as punishment.
Keep up the good work!
PS.
I would be grateful if this thread could be continued in the current Pprune style. Please choose one of the following topics as a basis for your post.
1. I have no idea what you do but my job is harder than yours and I do more dets than you.
2. The RAF is rubbish and I'm going to leave. Just thought I'd tell you all anonymously on the internet.
3. It's all the fault of the officers who are too busy gorging themselves on Foie Gras to worry about us poor lads down here in the trenches.
Carry on....
