There you are...
Do I know you ?
No, but there you are......Kidder, way off the mark (nice try though)
Kent, how right you are, I am still here.
sysmanukblah, As to being part of a legal process. I was once, it is called abortion, unfortunately as with most legal processes (correct grammar on a postcard please) it isn't always successful.
As the originator of this thread and the one who complained about how it turned into Lynx V's Gazelle in the middle can I just say... Some people need to take a little less caffeine and to finish with...........
Lynx can't fight.
and over to you lard lovers.....

how can i be referring to an individual if i dont know who they are and are using an alias, MR smartarse sysmanagerukfg (does the fg mean i'm not referring to you directly, from a legal point of view of course?) If people don't like it, don't partake. Simple. Oh and i've just had my grammer spull chucked as well. What exactly is the legal process for, "calling someone who doesn't really exist" a name? I bet you can't be arrested for it, or perhaps you can. Anyway must dash the coppers are onto me, i called someone Sir!!!

JHC
Excuse me. Do you realise how our hierarchy make us look like to the rest of the world? Second rate organisation to most others. When our glorious Corps can get us some flying, when COs get a grip of the REME and MAKE them provide aircraft for us to train in then we may gain some credibility. Don't preach from your ivory tower. On a recent tour in the Emerald Toilet I worked my nuts off in that sqn only to be looked down on by the organisation we worked for, provided with second rate accomodation and equipment to do a first rate job.

Now let's look at the example set to us ......

exactly how many recently commissioned officer (LE) have jumped ship recently? How many highly qualified pilots have been turned down for commissioned in favour of *superb, wonderful characters* who have subesuently left?

How about, for once, we support those on the front line and tear our corporate eyes from that alluring bright star otherwise known as AH. Oh, sorry, has that turned into another farce? Must've missed that bit, just like the in-service date and the other targets our leaders have signed up to and missed the boat.

I assume from your name that you either work there or support the ideals of that set up, if so, get out of your office and visit a bit, talk to the coalface.

Off soapbox now, nice meeting you old chap, another G&T?

I can only assume from your inflammatory attitude that you don't accept the offer of the G&T. OK, I'll drink it then.

Wow. Well, that was impresive. Actually with your IT skills, if you handle your aircraft and managerial skills as well as your keyboard, but thanks very much but I don't think I want a job with you.

Where's that bowser?

Cheers, |<n0$

Now I apologise for missing JHC's middle post, which appears to have been a little thought provoking and deleted for whatever reason.
Barnacle Bill, you will be sorely missed as a contributor to this thread... Oh no that's right you won't and why you felt the need to tell us you wouldn't be coming again.. all i can say is, F***ing civvies..........
As to headaches I have one at the moment that would kill a civvy but that is due to the usual Saturday night cocktail in the emerald toilet, you all know the score, well the ones that matter, Jock Nag, Rose Bowl, Dark Side followed by a large helping of JK’s Lard. Perhaps I should convert to Lynx.
Sorry what did I just say. I have a headache not a death wish…

Anyhow, I thought that Grown-ups (and I use the term VERY loosely) weren't allowed in the Dark side!!!

Believe me mate, you are far safer than me at the moment. Stuck in the middle of a Muslim country with my only protection being my superior skills.................................Oh, and a Battalion of heavily armed Ghurkas!!!

Well having worked a great deal with those Lynx types I feel I can comment on their stinking attitudes and also their opinion that they are superior pilots. From what I've seen they tend to live in an EGO bubble, that has obviously blinded them to their limited ability/intelligence, I mean how can anyone struggle to fly an aircraft that has that much power and all those management systems, I am also of the understanding that the A/C has an artifical intelligence system to make up for the lack of it in the two front seats!

Ultimately they all wanted to be RAF pilots but failed to make the grade, and enjoy the Lynx 5 job while you have it.

See Ya, wouldn't wanna be ya!!!!

Ooeer, that sounds like a big bitter and twisted bag of pomme frites mit mayo on your shoulder, Windymate. Or are you just jealous? Bus driver fiving.....na. More chance of getting a floppy on a Cat III course.

Glad to see The Emerald Toilet is much the same as it always was. The a**hole of the world and Ive passed through.Still visit now and again with 2 engines and 40 000 pounds of sleasy thrust. Extra reverse for the Officers Mess. How is that newish CO shaping up then . Good Luck to those who might go to Afganistan. PS Look up Http://www.fieler.com/terror for great training Sim
