Supplement 2 of 4 it is then

  • Following weeks of work, the E-GOAT team are delighted to present to you a new look to the forums with plenty of new features. Take a look around and see what you think!
From the chat we had from the trade sponser on IMLC, the trade was literally on the fence between the 2 supplement levels.Perhaps they should have factored in the dire state the trade is in with recruiting and used that as a carrot to dangle to improve it?Assuming the above is true of course!
 
To late for that. I doubt the RAF (i.e. Cosford) have the time money or ability to put people through a proper TG3 training course any more.


I think the unfortunate reality that most refuse to come to terms with are

1. There is only a very small proportion of TG4 that still require the full spectrum of skills taught to those ex TG3s.
2. We have no where near the throughput or the type of jobs required justify training 2 seperate trades.
3. It is quite realistic that our trade could be swallowed up by contractors/privatization and other trades/services leaving us with no job at all.

Exactly and thats why the TG is being put firmly in supplement 2 and no amount of bleating is going to change that.

Point 3..... That is true of most, if not all of the trades. Leaving a handful of deployable Herbert's to do the tasty stuff.

Sticky, is that conjecture or based on fact? If true why aren't we seeing this information in the wider community?
 
What I find interesting is that AT-Ms are below AT-AVs.

There is a skill factor there that is taken in to account with the fairies.

The ability to sit in the crewroom playing bridge all day but be too busy to do gash jobs.
 
In no way will that make things awkward on a sqn with av's being paid more than mech's especially if the management are legacy mechs.

beercalls would be interesting methinks
 
It's an interesting blend of trades in level 3.... Does anyone know when we find out the pay differences between supplements?
 
I can't see the tg1 trades being split, wouldn't work when you got to FS level when they combine.
 
Would they not assume the lower supplement at that level? After all, I guess they aren't producers anymore... More managers like in TG4 (apologies for lack of TG1 knowledge)
