    TG1 Retention again

    I'm registered with the IET as an IEng, and yes I do have airworthiness responsibilities in my day job, and yes I know you live in Stamford but you work at Peterborough, the point is mate that you can't afford to employ "engineering personnel" to carry out the tasks required with the current...

    Wider Service Medal

    The DIN hasn't been released yet so don't know what from the RAF side is covered but it's basically to keep the Army happy for enduring Estonia for 6 months.

    TG1 Retention again

    That's because there is a huge shortage of engineers. It's not rocket science it's basic engineering for which companies even in your home town of Peterborough, crown holdings who make coke cans are willing to pay AS1(T) and Cpls 50k+ over time, we have lost 6 so far. So yes, engineers need more...

    New Falklands medal

    what's the difference between sitting in the Falklands and sitting in Estonia? still away for 4-6 months from your life. Seen on X that the Wider Service Medal has been approved and first issue due April 24, Army going for 180 days and back dated to 2018, no list of areas yet, no doubt the DIN...

    New Falklands medal

    It's the long awaited Wider Service Medal, Ben Wallace says he's signed it off, it's been brought in for the Army for deploying to Estonia etc, the RAF will probably use it for Qatar ops and Falklands where there is rigour without the risk. It's on wiki

    TG1 goodbye Chf Tech

    TG1 goodbye Chf Tech

    But all they are doing is rebadging, a WO2 is still a FS doing the FS role in TG1. The rest of the air force are just on parity with a chief. (As they should be)

    TG1 goodbye Chf Tech

    As i recall PSF, MT and Blanket stackers aren't running for Civvy Street. TG1 are running for the hills and without engineers there is no flying. The Change to 'Techie Pay' is coming with Professions and 'Skills boxes' you will get paid for whatever 'skills' the RAF values, examples given would...
