echo, blakey,
tut, tut! would you two like a saucer of milk with that?
how serious you both are, only a bit of simple baiting from the boys in brown and you fall all too readily...........
educated peeps like your good selves, too!
enjoy, my good sirs and do take life a little less seriously.

isitd,
Well done mate,you did not fail me. I just knew that you were waiting to get in the 200th post (hee hee).
Actually Blakey and I are not serious or bitter people but someone has got to keep stirring the pot to keep you lot moving.
With regards to the poor grammar, it would be nice to see the odd capital letter and comma. It makes reading so much easier.
Anyway I'm sure you're enjoying this as much as we are.Simple things and all that !!

16 blades,
Thought your post had passed unnoticed did you ? Not so. Just wondered if you have a particular axe to grind regarding Movers or are you just another front end bunny who craves attention ?

I was going to let 16 wither & die with that comment. Since you spotted it:
I wanted an engineer to pop up (not often I want for THAT) and throw the lovely little phrase in here:
"You can train a monkey to ride a bike, but you can't train him to fix it." - well - it makes me smile.
Different jobs - movers & baggage handlers - just different jobs.
As for isitd - pushing a pallet when a light flashes - you TRAIN for that???

Nice to know that you guys are still out there.I was starting to feel a bit lonely.
Mr C.
I almost did ignore 16 but thought "what the hell ". I just hope DC8 doesn't give me another bo!!ocking for taking the bait.
Obviously my question was too difficult for 16 to answer by himself so I reckon he is probably consulting with one or two of his front end mates. I'm prepared for a long wait !!

I've been following various threads on the Military Aircrew Forum for some time now and thought it was about time I registered.
The Movers v Loadies thread has been particularly enjoyable and some of the posts have been excellent from both sides. I notice that on the first couple of pages the aircrew have taken the offensive and apart from ABIW and TAC Queen have come up with nothing better than snide one liners.The Movers although not squeaky clean have been more moderate in their posts and have probably been trying to bring some humour to the proceedings.
The arrival of I_stood_in_the _door has certainly brought a smile to my face on a couple of occassions and I hope there will be plenty more to come.
Keep it up guys there is plenty of fun to be had.

scapeogoatfooking breath more like
yep yuk scapes me old boring beardy lady, what you getting all ruffled for mr beaver. As you well know many a civvie has explosives in his heal and also forty grammes of peruvian in his saddle bag. So yes the need is there to be checked, but alas how many demented idots swinging swords do you find on the way thru the teminal transiting to an op or exercise. For not why mr sensible are the same checks not carried out a week later when the guys in theatre are running up the ramp or jumping onboard the kite to be dropped in a HOT LZ with pouches brimming and fully magged, sorry there, probably abit to complicated check 2gp so's we're allowed not even a pen knife one day and the very next we can have a round up the spout and a bayonet fitted so who's the arse/ the guy whom one day has some **** (acting) saying pack ya bergen ya self mate with his six cell, cuffs, and mini mag hanging around him or the guy whom six times a year has to put himself at the sharp end yes you will be suprised to know the forces do actually have people whom work for a living ,get wet , shot at, and don't survive on spare in flt catering hot coffee in the terminal or sit in the early hours dishing out parking fines as they have small d@'ks and very large egos. Oh and movers if don't want a bad name mend your ways as there are alot of you good girls and boyz marred by the few who are MOBILE well not mobile but you know who you are the twats with chips chips as big as battle ships what a bore what a bore......your all a spent force pay peanuts, get monkies..OBVIOUSLY NO OFFENCE INTENDED TO ANY ONE ON THE PLANET ALTHOUGH I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT MOVERS OR AT LEAST ONE LITTLE PIGGY MAY RUN ALL THE WAY HOME. ANY LIKENESS OR SIMILARITY FOUND IN THIS TEXT IS NOT INTENDED AND ALL CHARACTERS ARE FICTICIOUS HE HE COPYRIGHT OF BLUEJOB PRODUCTIONS LTD.

It's quite apparent you are a pongo and still have a very large grudge against the RAF in general and Movers in particular. Obviously one of them has s@2££ed you girlfriend, get over it! Why do Air despairers always harp on about tooling up and jumping out etc - you are not a real soldier and only dream of doing it. For gods sake get yourself back into arrse wher you belong. The best bit about the J is they don't need AD......

Of course the other good thing about the J is if you put two Loadie's on it you would'nt need any movers
Now what would that save in rates and pie's
merry Xmas one and all!!
all spelling mistakes are "df" alcohol induced

Blakey,
You obviously never came on the first operational deployment of the J to Afghanistan then, where each crew had an Air Despatcher as an integral and well appreciated part of it.
You are obviously oblivious to the fact`that the J does airdrop and therefore takes air despatchers flying on a regular basis.
Apart from these two minor points you were almost correct.
Merry Xmas to all and to all a goodnight.
