Whats wrong with you all? The present Government has treated the IAC very well.  The morale in the services have never been so high and the future looks even better!!Roll on the new jets!

I think if govts are to blame it can only be put down to efforts to foster public apathy or distaste for defence matters, if you can systematicall and credibly prove that I'll buy you a pint and get you a good copy editor.

In relation to FF's post, as far as i am aware "Morale" in the IAC is very low.

Also, I'd like the know the specific model of jet FF says we're getting. I'd also like to know the approximate numbers & approximate date of delivery.

FF, you continually bandy about the notion of jets, but you're always lacking in details. If you're as clued up as you claim to be you'd be able to tell us something.

We all reckon you're talking out of your hat, prove us wrong.

Hey n-e-foo, you've got the wrong end of the stick! FF doesn't know the first thing about the IAC, all she does is stir things up when she's drunk by making out she's a pilot flying the G4 and she's been a pilot for 30 odd years, so that would make her 50 odd years old. At that age she should be at least a full Colonel, does anyone who really works in the 'Don know of a full Colonel who's a Female? Who flies the G4? Free speech is one thing but the drivel she spouts is something else!

Does nobody here get what I am saying   '<img'>

Bertie's love of sport is a well known fact. Correct ?
Well what if, instead of sport, his biggest passion was aviation !
( - If he had grown up making 'airfix' jet fighter models!)


What kind of Air Corps/Force would we have today ?


(I know it's all hypothetical, but's so are a lot of other topics here).
