On a matter of military etiquette the Commandant of 2 FTS wears "wings" on his uniform but if he failed the Nav/Pilot crossover "thingy" is he still entitled to wear his RAF wings or are they glider pilot wings?
I am just curious as an ex-VRT Officer I know who was also a senior British Airways Jumbo pilot had a very tough time with the Commandant so much so that he felt obliged to leave the Corps.
A touch of envy perhaps?
