Not October as we all led to believe. So 800 getting ready for the 'stan it look lightg blue will be taking on any carrier duties for the next 5 months.

as I understand it, 801 will simply 'move in' with 800 to create the effect of standing up when in reality, JFH has other priorities than giving RN two train sets to play with :E

Just a quick question:
When the RN last had two frontline squadrons of SHARS, how many combat ready dark blue pilots did they bring to the table (excluding exchange blokes)?
And how many pilots did the RAF Harrier force have (including any light blues on exchange with 800/801/899)?
Since then, how many RN and how many RAF pilots have been outputted from 20 (Reserve)?

I'm sure that if anyone tells you Jacko, you will use that information in your famously impartial manner to report nothing but the facts and not attempt to put an anti RN, pro RAF spin on things:rolleyes:

No-one needs to be afraid of the truth, Tourist, unless the truth hurts.
I like the exact half of the RAF-RN Joint Force Harrier.
in the article.
What is a half, if it is not exact, may be it is called a 'Third' or Quarter'.:ugh:

Ah, you're forgetting something Tourist. This is the PPRuNe RAF forum, can't have things straying into any other aviation sphere. :=
