Zorab64,
Could you explain to me the meaning of "appropriate experience" in your last post?
I'll give you credit for previous sorties involving hovering behind clouds over Belfast at 1500'....
But as for hiding behind trees and trawling well known safe low level routes over Boscombe Down or N.Ireland... I'm not sure where that holds any distinct advantage ( in a modern ASU) over a well disiplined 2000 hour civvy trained pilot, well aversed in operating at low level in poor weather under sometimes intense commercial pressure and to un-prepared landing sites (HEMS or VIP/charter). Familiarity in intense night ops will probably only ever come from serving with a civvy police unit.
Beleive it or not, this is a genuine question and not a dig at ex mil guy's.
