I don't recall his name - sorry. I do remember it was towards the end of my tour there, so would have been 83/84; hope that helps.

Late addition - in trying to track this guy down, I've discovered a post on here from 2004 that said that the RM no longer had NCO pilots - officers only.
I can't place a bootie at that time either, but Dave Scotting was a WO AAC pilot at the time. He was only a WO a few months before the long-planned commissioning took place and he became Captain Scotting. I believe the brown jobs call it 'attending a face-board'. I think that's a nose-picking, eating peas off yer knife, reading the Sun check.
