Interesting post Gamecock, so they have in all essence dumbed the SAC trades down to a glorified Flight Mech, and the SAC tech is a Glorified SAC dual trade?
I can understand them dissapearing off after shift, especially if they as the Flem's I knew, they often started earlier than the main trades.
Sturb, the problem there is not that they have no interest in their trade, but the fact they are not being allowed to use the skills and training they do have when they are on shift, they are simply being under utilized in a way the trade structure was not designed for.
For what its worth a civilian pilot/ owner can probably carry out more maintenance tasks than a RAF mech is allowed to, and they have no training!
