This is not willy waving or piss-taking (which is unusual for me) but the RN fixed wing AWI was a QWI on steroids. The course was 'broader' than QWI because it wasn't so platform specific (but clearly it centred on the SHAR) and included much more of what went on in the rest on the RN, including some PWO stuff etc. Part of the course also included all the EWI stuff. So, as well as being able to do the things that a QWI would do: ACM training, AG training, cine debriefs
etc, an AWI was also up-to-speed on all aspects of warfare within the RN, as opposed to concentrating more on his own, particular aircraft type. Because of all the extras that were included the AWI course took a year to complete.
This is definitely NOT a post to denigrate QWIs but just some extra info for Alfred, since he's RN and it might be useful if he's aware of the difference between the two service's warfare instructors.
