Speculation is almost as useful as dis-information 8)
I don't see any op/sec per/sec problems so far in this thread.
If I had then it would have been made to go away.

May seem like a stupid question but, as the SAS are paid a substantial amount more then other army regiments, are 1 para paid more than 2 & 3 para through being the SFSG?

Like I say, this may be a really stupid question but it's something I've been curious about for a while now.

I think 1 Para are paid alot more than 2,3 Para. Don't 2,3 para only get the same as other infantry regiments but get hazard pay for jumping out of aircraft?

No, you have to pay 50p on your way out the plane door.
