Wow Crab
I must have imagined all the times we took casualties to Plymouth in IMC
Can't imagine how we did it without the wonders of a procedural IR.
Oh, and you should be careful using words like "unprofessional" when you seem to believe that you should be TUPE'd because the job is the same.
YOUR JOB IS TO BE AN AIR FORCE OFFICER.
DURING THAT JOB YOU
MAY BE ASKED TO FLY.
To suggest that your job is pilot/SAR just shows the lack of professionalism of RAF SAR primadonnas. As does the fact that you are leaving just because your happy little easy SAR life is over. Go and do some real work with the SH boys.
