Incidentally, I am not sure what the actual upshot of Mr Gaylard's point is. The very existence within JHC of CHF is somewhat fundamental proof that the powers that be accept that aviation in the maritime is an area which requires its own experts. Any suggestion that a RAF crew, collection of crews or hierarchy felt the same is laudable.
As MSOCS points out the RAF JFH chaps did admirably when 'plugged into' the supervisory 'socket' that a career in the maritime provides.
