It seems that the Wg Cdr Spry thread is not to be sullied with posts such as are on this thread, tuc. You know, ones about Flight Safety. Instead we should stay away, unless we have some helpful hints about desk-top publishing.

I'm afraid that we might be doing stone-age man a disservice though. At least he realised that sound freshly produced flints (flintworthy?) were vital to the successful outcome of a hunt, indeed to his very survival.

In contrast there seems to be an attitude in the RAF that the survival of one's career prospects supersede the possible survival of oneself, or more importantly others, from Flight Safety related risks. That is a concept that is utterly at variance to that which prevailed in my RAF. That is why I post here...
