So why does the RN have non commissioned Met Officers and the RAF only have commissioned Met officers.... There is no Met Officer on most frigates and destroyers....they get their Met briefings from the Aircrew who are qualified Forecasters... Admittedly, we have cut down a lot on Met Officers recently with video conferencing met briefs which work very well....but if it can work at a UK Air Station then why not use it abroad as well?

Next branch to get rid of is Air Trafficers..... Why do we need to talk to 5 different Air Traffic people to recover VFR to an Air Base.....and why do each and every one of them ask you for your P.O.B ?


p.s. I'm not a Fishhead.... I'm a WAFU
