Everyone has an opinion of the other Services, usually biased, and almost always second hand in that is viewed from the outside looking in. In my time in the RAF I met loads of ex Army/Navy who had crossed over to light blue but never knew anybody who went the other way (with the notable exception of RAF Regt to SAS). This could mean nothing of course but it could also indicate that once people knew the score they made the sensible decision they should have made originally.
Just a thought.
Or... that the RAF don't meet the standards of the RN.... *runs for cover*
