The Babcock / ex-Bond Team?
there is hardly anyone, if anyone at all, left in the management structure from Bond days, either retired or been abused by the new corporate structure that is Babcock and got out of dodge.
Babcock management is like a revolving door, MD almost changes annually (number 6 ish now since Babcock) structures constantly changing because no one wants the management jobs due to the people it means working for higher up.
There is very little management in aviation experience left at Babcock.
