Slightly off topic but is it actually a decent job? I very almost joined but got offered a different job first.

Is that the advert, of the guys in the bunker in the middle east.

If so I have spotted a couple of mistakes, that currently employed Raf personnel could clear up for me (or just tell me I am sad)

1) Is blue uniform now current issue for Hot weather conditions.

2) Since when did the albatross in the badge become a eagle

3) When did the Raf purchase a jet that can change shape (Harrier GR7(fast sweeping shot) to Tornado Gr4 (drops the paveway 3 LGB))


Just an ex crab wondering if times have really change in the 3 months I have been a civvy

My ex boyfriend was in the RAF, he hated it ...A LOT!
He left! I can get him to contact you but he wont be complimentary about it at all.
