I’m afraid that is an incredibly naive and ill informed post.

Firstly, should we let the taxpayers decide what we do with all of our assets? We all pay for them but we ask our government to defend our nation and interests. We don’t get a say in how that is done.

Secondly, please enlighten us as to what a full display team involves. Is it just one guy pulling the wings of a jet for a few weekends?

It is a drain on resources that a small fleet does not need.
