Sigh...at this rate we should rename this thread 'Why RAAF pilots are leaving'.

A sign of any organisations ability to make real, lasting cultural change is the ability to make hard decisions when times are good. (Its easier when its bad, because you are forced to) Air Force HQ has failed this test and will continue to fail it. Binnie will not save you, he is the product of the same system that produced the rest of the system maintainers. The pathetic retention bonus that was thrown at everyone at years start and the dead in the water pilot retention review are clear signs of this.

Remember the good times, there's no point worrying and making yourself upset. If you got out, make the most of your new life. If you didn't and are waiting to leave, don't worry, all recessions end. If you do stay, then maybe, just maybe, you'll have the balls to do what needs to be done.
