Why equate a robust and healthy disregard for anything army (especially air carps) with inexperience? Why wouldn't someone v. close to his pension think that the AAc suck the fat one?
Hey Mach, looks like you've got a new friend in rockdj. He's a gunner. Might give you a few tips on gunnery, you need 'em. Alternatively it's somewhere to park your size 9s.

Never a gunner strobin', only the driver!, all you need is a crewman to tweak torque and unwrap the mission mints....ahhhh bliss
Mind you it you can't pass the mints back in an WAH so rendundant (untill needed again)I might pop into Gut in a few weeks, anyone up for an swift ten?

At last a word from the mission mint supplier, it seems people forget that half the senior pilots/instructors in the Corps were once Airgunners. Don'y forget your roots. Its the reason why they walk away with all the trophies on the pilots course and funny old thing make beter aircraft commanders.mmmmmmmm.

As I put my shaking head in my hands, I wonder why I have to work with attitudes/characters like this? Sometimes I wonder if the hierarchy have got a hope in hell of fielding AH when the shop floor is littered with such small minded dinosaurs. You know who you are....say no, rather than I'll give it my best shot....ask what's in it for me rather than how can I help you? Perhaps, being one of the older in the set I am guilty as obviously I haven't passed on 'words of wisdom' to the new guys as I experienced when I came out of the box.
Don't worry, my coat is in my hand and the taxi has been waiting outside for a long time. There is no heat in the kitchen...in fact I wish there was, coz at least there would be a bit of passion and drive.....

I have come very late to this post...my apols, but sometimes I laugh and sometimes I spit feathers at this topic!!
It has been a bone of contention for a while within the "purple haze".
The facts are that the Army have it, the RAF non pilots would like it (maybe its gonna get them closer to Kate Aidie), and I still get paid the same for whatever I do in the month preceding!
Would any rotary pilot out there flying "ash and trash" like to fly it? if so then just apply to the AAC Im sure there are scores of Army pilots who would swop.
Lets just be getting on with the job we got to do now and stop slagging each other off, jeez I sometimes think we actually like to wind each other up just for a laff!!!
Helmut was right in most of his observations IMHO but let us remember that the Head Honcho for Army Aviation at MW in EW is a very knowledgable and slightly chubby RAF nav!!...He turns out the Army`s EWI`s and a fine breed they are too, but still not as much expertise as the RAF nav!
So if this stops and makes you have a new slant on it then good....if not, then bog off you crab to$$er....!!

Sorry, I thought I would add this completely spurious post to make this the longest and crappiest thread on the whole of pprune!
Bring back ACM(O) & (G) please, and all who sail in her.
