HC
In fact, am I not right in thinking that at least for the RAF, during initial training the hotshots go to fast jets, the also-rans go on to helis?
not exactly HC - I know at least one pilot who never made Capt on Sea King but who then went on to Tornado, and I also know another who never made CR on SH but went on to be a BAH Captain.
All I am saying is that its just a job that, like any other aviation role,
no, it also needs guts and dedication to really do it properly. I'm sure that many folk at Aberdeen have that quality but far too many of the ones that I met there were interested in one thing only - their pay packet.
