Mos old chap.
You have the wrong end of the stick mate.....as our QHI he had without doubt the most gifted pair of hands I have witnessed:ok: his ability to demonstrate all the rudimentary and more advanced techniques was a joy to watch.

However, and whilst I hate using this analogy as it normally comes back to bite me :E , "you can take the man out of the army but you can't take the army out of the man" and in the time I knew, liked and respected the guy this was definately the case for me:p

The point I was trying, pretty poorly it would seem, to make was that being an AAC SNCO should not be a drawback to becoming a proffesional pilot in the RAF.

Chill out mate:ok:

thanks - interesting websites you browse - still it's now legal and I am prepared to live and let live.

At least the RAF is more tolerant of those who wish to follow 'alternative' lifestyles, so in that respect they are way ahead of the rest of us.

You could have put a health warning on that link, phew... is that where one gets an alternative lifestyle?
Seems like I've led a sheltered life in the Army, it must be a hoot in the Air Force, do you get to dress up as well?
Someone please explain the wrinkled willy thing for a dumb pongo.
:confused:

Well, I did hesitate to reply to this one because I do think it would be a shame to keep it live, however, the urge overcame me (Sarnt Major), so listen up!

I held Brenda's Ticket in the Bleeps for 3 years and worked only occasionally with the RAF but they were - by and large - decent types. As, I hope, were we. We are after all from the same country and from similar backgrounds (if one discounts the H.Cavalry). Is it really therefore possible that RMAS and Cranwell could set us on paths to such seemingly different characters?

Also, this topic has been a pisspoor representation of both the Harmy and the RAF types. Please stop it!

Finally, considering that we're Hofficers and NCO's - what the Biggins has happened to our grammar and spelling? I mean - I'm drunk now and I seem to manage OK.

Oops. did I just start another riot?

Hope not.

Having read 'Chickenhawk' can I now join the AAC 'teeny weeny chaps'. Or do we not have enough munitions as our american brethren? Apache for officers, I say!

Aha - ISITD,

A touch of class at last !!

fizzog,

Must take exception to your use of the word "muppet" a few days ago.
Muppets are fine upstanding guys (and gals).

Grimweasel 19th Feb 2004 04:47

I think that maybe you officer types out there should look at who you are representing, ie. your capbadge and commission! You are all dragging them into the dirt and as an NCO in the AAC I think that CR needs a good slap around the face. I would be embarrassed to have you as one of my orificers, you do yourself no credit by backpedalling and trying to pretend your insults were actually humour, PAH! You are just a sad deskdriver now who instead of surfing LFA's, now surfs the WWW too much in Army time, get some work done, SIR!

As for the rest of you, try not to put the threadstarter off too much. You've all frightened him into the Navy!

Always_broken_in_wilts 22nd Feb 2004 04:54

TUTS,

Round of applause fella:ok:

Bill O'Average 22nd Feb 2004 08:46

A career laugh from the military wing of Serviceair in the shape of always broken in wilts, nay a glorified baggage handler.:ok:

An opinion as worthy as the local pikey down the Old Dog and Duck.:p

Prey tell of more wisdom from the rear white box arranger.:8

Always_broken_in_wilts 22nd Feb 2004 17:34

Cheers Bill:ok:

Was hoping someone would come in and validate TUTS point.....you couldn't have proved it better Sir:E

Sooo wrong ABIW. ;)

I work for a living.:ok:

Echo 5 23rd Feb 2004 00:27

BO,

After that outrageous thread which you intoduced last week and it's rather hasty removal by the Moderator,I thought you may want to retain what dignity you have left and keep your head down.
Perhaps a change of pseudonym would be advised cos your constant attacks on one of our number leaves you with no credibility whatsoever.Or is it all tongue in cheek? That's the usual
excuse.

PS; On reflection. It's a shame your thread wasn't left on for a couple of days so that a lot more people could see what a totally vindictive prat you really are.:8

I_stood_in_the_door 24th Feb 2004 00:27

Echo 5,

Hear, hear! BO (ooh what a smell!) is a bit of a bell. Didn't get the pleasure of his post but my imagination certainly works!

TUTS,

Read the clues old chap, the enlisted peeps should stick together.

Now, does this pedal make me go to the right or the left? And whats this colonic for?

Nark, nark.

ABIW,

Obviously not broken today - the 10 (or was it 11?) ship today was good to see.

I remember the days when a 16 ship was old hat and seen on a regular basis. How times change!

Good show!

Bill O'Average 24th Feb 2004 02:45

Awww, did the nasty man say something horrid to the sensitive luggage arranger?

Btw I feel no remorse over any post I have made under this user name. Shame some need to use the quantity rather than quality angle when posting. But I guess the white sock wearing airborne wing of securicor are a close bunch.

Always_broken_in_wilts 24th Feb 2004 02:49

I Stood shame on you:E ................looks a if you have angered the "ossifer".....kinda proves TUT's theory tho':p

Echo 5 24th Feb 2004 15:20

BO,

Not only does your arrogance and ignorance know no bounds,you are also full of sh!t.

E5 :8

I_stood_in_the_door 24th Feb 2004 17:53

ABIW,

Surely that should read 'T'ossifer'?

Tee Hee!

Book me another taxi, Bill O!

Tuts 24th Feb 2004 21:55

NAY, I disagree. I have some brilliant officers (tad of brown appears on end of nose!:O ). A lot of the AAC officers are so much more down to earth than RAF ones. Just the odd ones (mainly sproggy jumped up idiots like CR) are TWATS and bring themselves down in such a public way. They forget that the entry requirement to the Pprune forum is a valid email adress and not a MOD 90 or equivelant, and therefore Joe Bloggs and his band of merry brothers can happily read how much of an idiot he/ she is making of themselves and therefore their corps. I don't mean to sound a real by the book type, 'cos that I'm definitely not. However, some restraint is required, especially if you pronounce yourself to be of the toffee eating variety of service(wo)men. HAR HAR! Us enlisted can happily say what we want because we're known to have fookin mouths like fookin troopers, awreight!
