Good point.
British officials were disappointed with the Australians and their performance with the Gloster Meteor. The RAF's senior representative in Korea, Air Vice-Marshall Bouchier criticised the RAAF and recommended that the RAF send 12 of "it's very best hand picked jet fighter pilots" to show the Australians how it can be done.
However the RAF's chief, Sir John Slessor demurred, and decided not to get involved in a "rather unpleasant argument" for fear that if the British mission would fail, it would affect RAF Meteor pilots morale back in the UK, not to mention overseas sales of the Meteor.
