AoTW for CAF!!
How true.
Given the complexity of today's aircraft and the environment they operate in, experience is paramount. However the RAAF sticks to the same old dogma when it comes to pilot manning. Gotta keep pushing them through the training system so we can keep the promotion system fed. Let's totally ignore capability and the dwindling experience levels in the squadrons. We can always recruit laterals from other air forces at the expense of developing our own guys.
Want SRP? How about reducing the numbers of officers above unit command level by 50% and doing something to reduce the top heavy nature of our the RAAF? I'm sure the effect on operational effectiveneness will be negligible.
