until the RAF decreed around 1979 that only "officers" could be RAF pilots. He PVR'd...
I think that you'll find that would be 1959! By the way SAMXXV I'm sorry you've had such a poor experience of Scots, Irish and Welsh people. Me too, I've also known some great English people, but I've not quite been able to separate everyone quite so meticulously and then find that all the arseholes are of Keltic origin and the good guys all Angles and Saxons. Take my advice, regarding your Pure Anglo-Saxon crusade, give it up now, before you find out just how many people with such origins aren't actually English or don't regard themselves as such... and just how many people have no Anglo-Saxon lineage, whatsoever, yet regard themselves as English through and through?! Ta very much!
