Sorry to revive a dead topic here, but curious about somthing... are we expected to maintain 500kms every year on every SMP vehicle we're qualified on, or would maintaining 500kms on the heaviest suffice?
On the troop lift, if the 500kms for troop lift in addition to the "maintenence" kilometers? IE would I have to clock 500kms to maintain my ML and another 500 to carry troops? Or would it mean everyone who has their qualification would also have troop lift?
Finally, does this apply to civvie pattern vehicles? I've got A1 and B1 (Civvie car and truck) but I've never actually driven a staff car, it seems odd (And I know this has all been adressed previously in the thread) to me that they'd let me drive an MLVW but take away by my staff car because I haven't driven one 500kms in the last year.
What are the alternatives to maintaining the 500kms on the vehicles? Mandatory retesting on each class of vehicle? I'm thinking in terms of a reserve unit here, it's not realistic that everyone maintain 500kms/year on every vehicle, but it doesn't seem at all impossible to include testing on expired vehicles as part of September training... viable, maybe not, but not impossible...
And if Tommy wants MSE ops driving all our trucks, no problem, he's welcome to pop by and drive my rad truck around, I'm sure I can find room for the det member in the cam bin on the roof... heck, lead by example, I'll ride up there, I've got a fleece and a pair of SWDG
