You guys have such rose tints to your bifocals!

Just think, the modern RAF has state of the art aircraft like VC10, TriStar and the brand new C130J. Fighters like Typhoon that singlehandedly provided simultaneous air cover for Libya, Falklands and the RAF News. Shiney new helicopters like Sea King and Puma, not to mention the brand new Merlin.

We've got rid of many costly people in handbrake house and we've got this amazing self-service system called JPA. We've got a much more efficient system in the messes: pay as you dine.

We've got rid of unnecessary basing and housing, now we've got Super Bases like Brize. We don't put you in damp quarters any more, you can live in lovely private accommodation.

We've paid you so much over the last few years, we've even had to freeze your pay and cut expenses so the rest of the world can catch up!

So come on chaps! Get down to your high street optician*. You can see its far better now!
