Sure, why not..... Maybe also have a general look over the Ranks as a whole, since some go much higher than others.

RCN ranks and ratings would be nice....

Well,
I know Jim is up to his eyeballs in sorting out Network problems at the moment so I dont know if one of the other editors could do it but I'm certainly for RAF ranks....
I served in the RAF for 10 years and its quite painful for me to use Army ranks :-) :-)
Personally I would prefer Airmans ranks over Officer ones -
Aircraftsman
Leading Aircraftsman
Senior Aircraftsman
Junior Technician
Corporal
Seargeant
Chief Technician
Flight Seargeant
Warrant Officer
Pilot Officer
Flying Officer
Flight Lieutenant
Squadron Leader
Wing Commander
Group Captain
Air ranks - without looking them up I cant remember - just stand still and salute like mad 'till they bugger off out of the way :-) :-) :-) :-)
Somebody give me a slap if I've missed some

RAF ranks would be a nice addition.

I think that any rank addition would be fine. I had mentioned a few months ago that I would like to see some Irish ranks added.
Just my two cents worth.

RAF ranks would be fantastic..especially for us "aeroscalers".
Fingers crossed and see what Santa brings.

Also to add
Marshal of the Royal Air Force
This idea is great but I came up with a better one for me.
Maybe to improve the links with 195 Grimsby ATC and other Air Training Corps Squadrons maybe the inclusion of them ranks after all its the only way ChoirBoy will get the chance to hold a Rank higher then Cadet.

I had already PM'd Staff_Jim requesting this but never got a reply (since hes busy i'll let him off )
RAF ranks would be great lets get them on there as i'd rather use them than the USAF ones (no offence intended).
Heres a full list of the ranks in the RAFwith pictures for those that don't know what they look like
Junior Ranks and Non Commissioned
Commissioned (Officers)
oh and Lewis, thats no way to talk about a fellow cadet (no matter how true it my be) :-)

Just a reflection from an "old-timer" here, ranks have been dicussed many times and what it seems to boil down to is Jim just doesn't have the time anymore to add things like this. I sent him all of the Swedish ranks something like four years ago, but other issues have taken precedence. I don't know exactly what it entails to make the ranks work, but seems to be time-consuming.
I'm all for it understand, and I'm not trying to be pessimistic, it is just the way it is...for the lack of better words.
