Funnily enough, I have:

The Pope is going to resign due to ill health and old age; oo'd 'ave fought it guv?

Perhaps he should go in the stiff list.

centreback, i thought a medical was conducted straight after passing AIB?

 

[Centrebac15]

No they have stopped conducting them at AIB now, now you have to go up to Cranwell, i forgot to mention this was for Aircrew..

[Pontius]

Haha! I can live with just being a driver Scouse

(a)It's 'the driver' and
(b)You watch how brainy the passenger is when you tell him to stuff his idea where the sun doesn't shine

No stick, no vote :biggrin:

Nowadays, when one considers we can send a Tomahawk cruise missile several hundred miles inland to hit a target with comparable accuracy, technology is such that a geek in a shack in Lincolnshire can 'pilot' a drone 7000 miles away, the RAF seem to think there's no need for aircraft carriers because they managed to send a 1950s bomber 8,000 miles to miss a strategic target thirty years ago and a 'warship can shoot down a target the size of a cricket ball travelling three times the speed of light' it's heartening to see we're still recruiting pilots. (pointless as they maybe) :thumbleft:

Ninja, oh Ninja, so much hate there.
Calm down, put your feet up and think of the good old days when flogging was a recreational sport during Sunday forenoon.
Think of the fun gained whilst keel hauling.
Its just tradition, worth fighting for.
And breath.
