It is you that spouts drivel.
Yes there was one outstanding civvy instructor, but I can't think of any other non ex mil were not dross.
It was a shambles.
No continuity, far too many students, busses for an hour in the morning to RAF Netwon because Barkstone could not cope. 50% of the flying in the last 10% of the course due to backlogs. Students being launched en mass into suckers gaps. Farcical briefing arrangements.
Yes the 260 Firefly was good, but that is hardly relevant.
