I have been thinking about L337's comments. I can immediately think of three ex-RAF Wg Cdrs that I have flown with. All of them started in the right seat, were excellent pilots, good company and extremely kind to the ladies.
They all subsequently became good captains and bore no resemblance whatsoever to the pillock who has just thrown his toys out of his pram and fled this discussion in a fit of childish pique.
I assume that since he reckons he deserves a command with GSS that he must currently be a Nigel? If so, it doesn't say much for your selection procedure does it?
He can't spell puerile either!
