Gentlemen:
Thanks very much for the prompt replies. This definitely alleviates any concerns I had as to whether or not it was even possible, and certainly helps a great deal in my future career planning. It's much appreciated. Looking forward to my remaining time with the RCAF and hopefully one day I'll be across the pond flying for the real Queen's Airforce
Pope - I'll be sure to say hi to the boys up here. Pikey Just retired a few weeks ago and Nik Nak is the other RAF exchange up here. Not sure if you know them but I'm sure some of the other IP's that have been on SQN for a while will know you.
Cheers,
RCAF FB
