Seriously, HPT, are you going? We both know a nice man in the UAE who'd snap you up with your background/experience. It's tempting me to go too. PA is a nice offer, but I'm just not sure it's what I want to do for the next 20 yrs.

Latest (rumour) from a secret SH base near Basingstoke is that a number of guys have either PVR'd or exercised their 38 option recently. When will the announcement for the new FRI be made? (Not that it will benefit me, if the (rumours) as to its target audience are true

We are about to lose a whole swathe of Flt Cdr's who have stated that 100 grand is not even close to being enough to keep them in, in fact 250 grand would not swing it for at least one of them.

I can't understand how there are not more pilots out there voting with their feet under the current "stretched but not over stretched" regime we live in

It will be interesting to see who will put their money where their mouth is, should a FRI come to fruition in the next twelve months. Both ways!

I hope it works, because we need to keep some good guys in!
