For those with access to Dii and an ASIMS log-in, the DASOR from Cranwell, including photos, is available to read, however it is still not releasable to the public.

I do enjoy reading the outrage, the reminisces and the "...if only they'd done XX and yy then everything would be peachy...".

Personally, I think the Tutor has done a sterling job, is very cheap to fly and has proved reliable. Why all the bitching? It also produces some excellent prospects for further training. I believe there ought to be a debate (not on here) regarding the increased use of synthetic training but with current running costs for the Tutor so low, why would you? The calibre of student emerging from the OASC and IOT is waaaaaay higher than in my day and very few students seem to struggle with the course, despite the much reduced hours so tinkering would probably only reduce the quality.

JMHO.
