OD,
Good start - however, it my experience (and others) that the Ed RAF News or his staff will not reply. Much better to bite the bullet and fire something up to a level where there might be some interest - don't hold your breath! The RAF News, Imho, is heavily managed and censored from above - you only have to look at the drivel on the letters page. Overall, the RAF News is not for us, it is for outside consumption - and air cadets. IIRC the banner on the latest issue says something like " a newspaper for heroes"!!
