Thats the question that by the time it's been answered in anything other that PME speak, it will be to late. As of about 3 weeks ago after a chat with the man in the know, the answer was, no, we're not short of 'E' manpower.

I wondered that too??

My guess would be 'Pay Review 09'

Let's not hold our breath eh?!

FD - "All these C130J and C17 airplanes are a 'peacetime' fleet!!"

Now then Mr Detent, would like to spend the afternoon by the window or the television? WINDOW OR TELEVISION; WOULD YOU LIKE SPEND THE AFTERNOON BY THE WINDOW OR TELEVISION, MR DETENT?
No, no more internet, you've had enough of that silliness. Now then....
Oh. I think he's nodded off. Bless him.
Oops, careful, little bit of dribble there....

Knowing this Government it will be

"Premature Release 09"
