Ah Silsoe my mistake.
Your not ex mil are you..
We cops at our unit do take the p£ss out of "our" pilots.. And VERY much vice versa..
by the way "cop" isn't a derogatory term I don't see why you have a problem with it.? Perhaps you could get a cop from your unit to comment.,?
It may be an issue local to you, I don't know of any cops that have a problem with it and I've known a few over the last 20 years.
And yes. I did have a go at fly for fun for the "this is a pilots forum" comment, when clearly it isn't it, and the comment was quite unnecessary. I'm sure he's a grown up and wont be hurt at anonymouse ramblings in a small fishpond like prune...?
Otherwise you can pass on my apologies to him/her...!
