Do you have a source for your assertion?

Or is it as accurate as your spellchecker?

Wilts,

" TROLL ALERT HIGH "

and then

" The answer is yes we have been working extremely hard etc etc etc etc"

Never ceases to amaze me that despite a nudge and a some people still take the bait.

I thought he replied in a mature, factual manner. I don't know who southside is, but the way he posts seems like he is a 15 year old school boy. Apologies if you're not, but the title of this thread leaves a lot to be desired - more witless than witty.

Quite correct VP, top and honest answer from Front Seater which paints a pretty grim picture, and I sincerely hope things improve as you folks come more online.

However I do know where E bloke is coming from as some of the more regular prune posters have become highly suspicious of "southsh1tes" credentials and are rapidly forming the same opinion as you have.........he's a t@@ser

Talking AH tempo

The AH crews are equally well supported by the Ground Crews, and yes, the tempo is very high.

Front Seater,

My apologies, no offence meant to yourself, only to the to$$er who started this thread which IMHO is both tasteless and pointless.

Agreed Echo. Any mature adult would have simply asked if the AH world was overworked. The title and initial post frankly is embarrassing.

Apache Induced Divorce Syndrome (AIDS) is a witty little acronym (or is it a mnemonic?) that has been floating around the US Army Apache community since the early nineties. By using it on a medium such as this you can clearly establish your credibility as a worldly wise sage on all matters Apache. Or answer (b)...

Not only is this thread tasteless and pointless it is now confusing to anyone reading it for the first time as some posts have been removed. Best that the Moderator consign it to the garbage bin methinks.

Echo 5,

Agreed - don't worry no offence was taken from your original post - I was just trying to put an honest view forward prior to the thread degenerating into a 'I work harder than you' or 'my aircraft is better than yours' useless drivel.

AIDS huh?

I could tell you the AIDS acronym that I know but I fear it may cause some offence.

Angry SS rants

So, South, having offended me with your comments about one of my posts, I'm impressed that you drag this thread from the gutter and attempt to dress it up as either original, or of genuine interest to you; judging by the tone of your other posts, it appears that you may lack any affinity to Army flying. Personally, it's a bloody good way of bringing together considered thought (and humour and some humor) from a like-minded fraternity.

Pse see replies concerning the training regime facing pilots and crew (and I include Ground Crew here), particularly at 9 Regt. The work rate is very high and justifiably so - not surprisingly, a common theme for all aircrew across all three Services. Let's not go airing this weak news item across a public forum.

Readers: sorry for the rant!!

Anyone want a good joke about some gloves?
