Who was it that said, "you should keep quiet and let people thing you are a fool rather than open your mouth.........
How is the training dept staffed up to create enough new cadets & commands before the next wave of a/c arrive? Don't these trainers also need holidays? Indeed, do they have enough sims even?
Apparantly the training department is struggling too, allegedly dire need for LTCs but no capacity to SIM them and nobody wants to be an SFI because most never fly and are constantly hounded to work days off and do favours for nothing in return.
