The RAF (Merged)
ATM!
First
I hate all that crap that is just poorly disguised cuts.(lean etc)
Second
At lot of what you list is our job (CCS, Fitness) but it could be better integrated into our working lives.
The RAF of today is not the one I joined (I've said that before!!) but the varied lifestyle that is doubtless still available, the whole ish! (please substitute a better word here) that you have a chance to belong to is still a very rare thing.
I stand by:
"If you can't fly them, mend them."
Where else is the job satisfaction?

he will just get crew transport to take him back to the mess until you get your finger out and fix the Aircraft that should have left an hour ago.................
No wonder with that sort of attitude towards the Techies did you have your jolly delayed . Lean doesn't just affect the techies , i think you'll find it also impinges on your jolly little jaunts over blighty.......
Spelling check after xmas drinks.
Priest,
In the current climate I would forget the nay sayer's words and get signed up as a WSOp if you are given the opportunity. In very simple terms the RAF is split in two, those who fly and those who support the flyers, so why not get the support rather than give it. As for pilot cross over I would suggest that a few years of Op flying will stand any candidate in good stead for the selection board. Good luck in whatever you decide and let us know how you get on at OASC
ALWAYS assume NEVER check
