in framer, we have here either a very badly misplaced sense of humour or that scariest of all things, a man who doesn't know that he he doesn't know.

I agree that anyone current on a similar type could fly the RAAF aircraft. However, to operate it competently and the way the RAAF would want it to be operated would be another matter altogether.

If it's as Wiley suggests, a money-saving(?) plan to put any QF pilot who's current on type into a RAAF aircraft, it would have to be put in the 'really silly ideas for Defence from politicians' column - unfortunately, already a very long column. If it's for better utilisation of reservists, with experience in the RAAF, it might have some merit.

Why is it that I think Wiley's suggestion might be close to the mark?
