If my type was only in one location, no of course I would not have moved and that is exactly my point transport and rotary have been in the same location for years and therefore you have had stability.
Those on FJ get moved around more as they are stationed in a larger number of bases.

As you can guess from the nic I was a groundcrew Armourer and my trade is one of the most diverse in the airforce.
I could have been 1st line, 2nd line, 3rd line Bomb disposal etc, etc.

My point is that the fast jet community as a whole (groundcrew, aircrew and support) have been more transient and therefore have had less of a chance to set down roots.
