MSOCS you only have to look at what has happened in the years since the early sixties to realise what has been happening! Furthermore, take a look at the very brief career these guys have in the front line before promotion into the realms of fantasy! The system as it stands is unsustainable! There is no continuity between the front end and the VSOs. There needs to be some lateral thinking, especially as we have so few squadrons and frontline assets. Pilots should be professional pilots not future senior wheels! We need to rethink the structure before we get the results that reflect a modern Air Force. This has been the case for far too long!
