OA - trying not too let my "blood rise" (pressure's too high already...), technical points well made, but are we denying that:
this was a battle started solely by CDS/CAS/ACAS.
or,as the good Inspector puts it:
Have some people only just noticed that there is a tad of prejudice knocking around the air force? Not a surprise surely? Maybe that's why we come across as complete c***s at time to the other Services.
I, like many others I suspect (and know), are pretty upset by this perception and particularly by CAS's formal remarks about a very large (and equally important) percentage of the RAF's intellectual capacity. Engines speaks for many:
the remarks by CAS makes me sad - and a little angry.
So what - will he apologise or withdraw the remarks - or are we all to be treated as the "pond life" so eloquently suggested by FINNPOG (cheers FP for the love
)....or maybe he should just go (and take ACAS with him) now!! We all deserve better
