Military Aviation A forum for the professionals who fly military hardware. Also for the backroom boys and girls who support the flying and maintain the equipment, and without whom nothing would ever leave the ground. All armies, navies and air forces of the world equally welcome here.

I suppose Scouse and Geordy are considered 'English"?

Wasn't the selection from both changed after one met an A10? over the German plains and pulled up without warning the nav, who having being made aware about uncommanded control inputs at low level ( when one flew close to a transmitting mast ) ejected, thus taking the pilot who hadn't had time to warn him about the A10
? with him, from a perfectly servicable jet?..
