Wow, you just couldn't make that up could you!
Is there actually anybody in the whole process that has a scooby about what actually goes on in the RAF? Does *anybody* in a uniform actually monitor what these folks are up to?
In fact it's so crass I'm suspicious it's a wind-up and I've been hooked!

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Clowns in meedja land .. who have absolutely no understanding of, nor appreciation for, the Forces let alone the TLAs therein, yet still get given the contract for advertising / marketing. Hence the constant 'mistakes'...
BUT .. which idiot exactly (in the Forces?) signed off on this one? It really is time to start calling these people to account... just as happens in every other occupation and industry. And in those industries they get fired. Because they are fundamentally incompetent and not fit to be 'in post' !!! Why should it be any different just because one happens to wear a certain colour uniform?

cargosales ... I believe the RAF 1* was identified on the thread about the atrocious RAF100 logo.
PVR?
PVR may be understood by the Old and Bold, but the term used for leaving early is Early Termination, and has been for quite a few years. Consigned to the attic of memories along with putters, NAV bags and shrinking Mess kits.

Speaking as an ignorant civvy, but massive aviation enthusiast, please could someone tell me what was wrong with the original? I couldn't spot any spelling mistakes. Was it just the lack of a full stop after 'Op' or the O presented as a roundel?

And the PVR "see your future take flight" is the cherry on the top.

If you can't be good, be careful!
Putters?
