Really? What expertise in this field do you have that makes you able to represent the general public? Afghan or Iraq ops? Desert warfare and operating helicopters in these hot and high conditions?
AA's not posting what he thinks, he's posting what the public will think when they hear this.
The general public have none of this expertise nor an understanding of the complexity of operating in this environment. What they do have is reports of officers and politicians on one hand saying "we can't do this", and, on the other, shots of the space in and around Camp Bastion. So they're bound to ask why the problem cannot be overcome and more helicopters sent out immediately since of course they're not aware of all the other factors.
It's more a failure of education and
PR on behalf of the MoD/RAF to explain the issues properly and a failure of the media to responsibly report the facts, which I believe that was AA's ultimate point.
