Of course, if the whingers such as that tiresome Mover had worked harder at school, this thread would be largely irrelevant!

Nevertheless, I have to agree that some aircrew (mostly pointy-head FJ types) used to choose the daftest occasions at which to wear No 14 dress. For example, when attending the School of Fighter Confusion in Northumbria for JTIDS courses, some aircrew turned up in flying suits (....'ing miles from the nearest FJ aerodrome) and others chose to swelter in that god-awful prepschool uniform of V-necked pullover, shirt and tie in summer, just to show off their aircrew status.....

Which was at least preferable to the ubiquitous combat pyjamas the rest of the RAF seems to spend its time wearing these days....
