I am looking to compile a trade group page with explainations of what trades come under each trade group number.

If anybody has a list or such like then it would be billy bonus.

If not then if people could list their trade group and what trades come under it I will sort the list out as soon as possible.

My reasons? Well to be honest people on the main forums spout "Well in trade group 17......." and I haven't a clue what trades come under that trade group so it would be helpful to have some sort of reference.

Many thanks in advance.

Gen Tech Mechanical.....used to be GSE or MT Fitter fix anything mechanical not actually on an airtcraft.
Gen Tech Electrical fix anything electrical not on aircraft....GSE and MT
Gen Tech Work Shops make things out of metal for everyone.

Simple version will provide exhaustive list of worktypes for GSE and I'm sure Sparks Will Fly will add any lecky extra info.
Don't know if there are any bashers on here.

Hope this helps. It may be ever so slightly out of date given that trades have renamed: Logs and Med Admin, but other than that I think it is OK.

That would be a good thing for us civilians and potential recruits as most of us dont have a clue. :pDT_Xtremez_15:

One of the bits out of date is the IA Trade.

Intelligence Analyst (Imagery) & Intelligence Analyst (Comms) have now merged to just Intelligence Analyst which is now in trade group 11. Theres no change to IA(Voice).

Just so you guys know :pDT_Xtremez_30:

Was interested my old pre assimilated trade has had its name changed.
"GENERAL TECHNICIAN GENERAL SERVICE EQUIPMENT" quite an apt description but its actually Ground Support Equipment.

Wobbly, the best place to find trades is in the JSP 754, link attached
http://defenceintranetds.diiweb.r.m...brary/09/1060_JSP754 Edition 9.doc#Chap3Sect2

Annex C to Chapter 3 Sect 2 gives all the Trade Groups, trades within, and for those interested their Pay Range Allocation.:pDT_Xtremez_28:
I'm not in work so can't check the link, but does it still list the trades people were in, but did not assimilate to the new trades (such as Eng tech El to TG4)?

I know there are folk still out there who are obsolete, but is the goat going to recognise them or do what the RAF does, and bin/ignore them?

Under TG 15, Med Asst and Med Admin are now merged to become RAF Medic. Changes to JPA pending but new trade title coming into general usage.
