Of the aircraft techie type trades, 7 when I was in how many of each are on the goat. If your trade doesn't exist pick the closest, if you are a splitter pick your original trade and if you were a supertech select ******:PDT_Xtremez_14:

Looks like you didn't concemetrate did you because it wasn't fairy avionics it was

Fairy Radar

Fairy Air Comms

Fairy Nav Inst (later Flt Systems)


Then there were the original ex Appo super techs (originally designed to deal with the systems on the ill fated TSR2)

A Eng Tech - passed out as Cpl after 3 years Appo course at Halton

L Eng Tech - passed out as Cpl after 3 years Appo course at Cosford

They then got time promotion to Sgt after a fcuking year FFS - for many of them (the ones that didn't get their commission) sgt proved to be their rank ceiling - sm@rt @rsed smug bunch of fekkers - there were a handful of sensible ones many became very good GE's and crew chiefs

During the cold war we had

A mong of super techs (cos they were thick fekkers and dribbled after 2 drinks)

A thalidamide of BEngOs (cos they were armless)

I'd hate to turn this into who is the most superior thread, but you lot should all be bowing down before my brilliance, for I was one of the chosen few. I am the cream of the aircraft technician trades, and the lesser being hold me in awe at work. This is demonstrated by regular Chinese burns, and the smearing of dog sh1t on my car..

Yes I am a product of the apprentice training scheme, and because of this I am better than you single trade retards.

Please refer to Post 11 regarding cream and scum as you appear to be confused between the two - same with your trades Jack :PDT_Xtremez_30:

Hmmmm

Hmmmm

I voted Fairy Avionics.....partly cause it's the only proper trade as everyone knows....nothing produced these days could fly without us.....

BUT

I joined up as a RADAR mech (MAR45), did the fitters course (FT6 (otherwise known as FAT6)) ans apparently knew everything about comms and flt sys....bo11ox....then again i knew/know more than our new avionic personel (DF's)

Refused x-dressing as it's playing into MOD/RAF's hands as a tool for personnel reduction (not that they need any tools, they are well endowed in that department)

Crack on...............:PDT_Xtremez_09:
