As far as dropping bombs go, I don't know how much this will help me but I'm also a Forward Air Controller and as you know, CAS is the Harrier community's bread and butter. My next job will be to train FAC's at EWTGLANT so I won't be completely away from TACAIR...except this time I'll just be watching others drop bombs.
Also, how does the RAG work for ex-TACAIR types that end up joining TACAIR guard units? Is the syllabus shortened in some way? Well, I have plenty more questions for you but this should suffice for now. Let me know. Thanks.
You need to make a few more posts to enable PM, when you do, send me one, I'm not gonna put his name out there. I can answer the rest for you later too if someone doesn't before I can.
Cheers
