Thankfully, because the operating crews of light fixed-wing ISTAR are soldiers, they won't whinge, bleat and moan about pee-tubes and hydration. They will prepare themselves thoroughally for flight, keep fit to fly while operating, and then be ready to go again fairly swiftly.

Beags, the operation of fixed-wing ISTAR is these theatres is very simple. If you had been, you might know.....
Oh oh, another Beags -v- brandnew flame fest is in the offing...
(cf Falklands Airbridge thread)

Beags - calm, calm, deep breaths, there - thats better. Now go for it
