I've just read CAS's foreword.
"The future will inevitably present us with new challenges as our enemies adapt and it becomes harder to retain and recruit the people we need, but we control the levers to address these problems."
Is he saying that the remuneration package offered to servicemen is in his gift or maybe he's happy with the current experience levels of RAF personnel and doesn't need to pull this 'lever'?
A small further point
In the the penultimate paragraph there a space missing before the penultimate sentence. Pedantic perhaps but if you're going to publish such a document for public consumption at least proofread it first.
I'll get back to you when I've read more.
