Aha, but these do not operate in the same way as RN MTP's which are Engineer Officers
No they are not. There are 2 MTP's at Yeovilton and neither are Engineers. Lets face it....we could probably do away with MTPs...but who in their right mind wants to spend the day conducting Vibro's and Max Con PTF's ?....in view of that, lets keep the MTPs and they can do all the $hitty flying
