The other new to me one
The Airborne Tech
With the introduction of the Boeing Sentry AEW Mk 1 in 1991, there became a need for a qualified electronics technician to be carried to maintain the mass of electronics systems. Airborne Technicians are actually ground tradesmen who can return to normal ground servicing after an airborne tour.
Will they retain the brevet when they return to ground based duties as do other trades from Pilots through to I was going to say Air Eng, but by the RAF site they along with Navigators no longer exist as a Brevet...
Must be an eye opener to those that are still in to know they are no longer recognised. So I take it they are all now WSO's
Sorry for the thread drift.
