I am quite keen to stay, but this will make up my mind to go..
Which may well be exactly the attitude they are looking for. Remember all ground trade PVRs across the board are now 6 months. A sure sign if ever there was one that a downsizing is already under way. Nobody is regarded as being worth saving, although the AH64 chaps probably disagree with that after their AFPRB package this year. You will probably find that you can get out so quickly that somebody else has to turn your IT off for you 'cause you have already left the building.
The million dollar questions are:
What numbers are they downsizing to, and apart from AH crews, is anybody else invaluable. The leaner fitter RAF to which the senior brethren aspire is fundamentalty youth based, not experience based. Young, pliable and fit, otherwise you are disposable. I fear the RAF may adopt the philosophy of the other two services in that a military career is over at age 40.
