Thank you for the above ideas/views, however this throws up a separate question as to whether there are to be any 800 series squadrons operating the type and possibly 700 series units to train the RN component of the force.
Were I a cynic (perish the thought) I might say that when the RAF went to look for the squadron silver etc in the store, they found that 207s was the only lot that hadn't been looted due to lax management and hence could be recovered without too much dirty washing being exposed.
