"They arrive here and we try to unmould their tri-service learning," says Royal Navy Lt Andy Higgins, the squadron's second in command.
Is that really a Naval Officer on an Army Unit slagging off jointery or have I got the wrong end of the stick; especially when the only tri-service training army helicopter pilots get at DHFS are the Army and Navy elements!

It could be seen as a self hack singing the praises of the busy (read restricted airspace) of SPTA versus the freedom that is offered by LFA9 especially with regard to tactical flexibility rather then adhering to published routes. (....and mountain flying (MFTA) on its (LFA9) doorstep)

Good Museum at Wallop though in fairness.
