I do imagine, from what I have seen and heard from him, that 1SL would be upset if the PTT attempted in any way, shape or form, to suggest that he bought into the ideas that some of its bloggers seem to have about what should be done with the RAF, though.
To say the least!

While we're on the subject of half-truths and myth and legend, perhaps gzornenplatz could remind us which NAS was flying the F4 requiring trappers on which ship in the 80s? Or more pertinently, in what year and why the decision to shut the training pipeline for naval F4 aviators was made? Which might just have had a teensy-weensy bit to do with the light blue perception that the dark blue can never adequately man its FW? (Reprised in the noughties as well....)
