raf opso
apollo i worked wiv the bloke who got his sqn ldr after one tour and went to caoc 9. i believe hes at northolt now. he was a complete ********* his nick name was smithers! personally i think the flight ops branch should be branch comissions only or failed aircrew, but a lot of the flt ops who are failed aircrew have big attitude problems, perhaps the course at shawbury should have a more military feel, you know early morning parades and drill. might make some of them remember what the f stands for in raf. end of soapbox rant!
