So they maxed the airframe? Does that mean that the airframe will have to be used as a gate guardian now?

It seems crazy to me that the MOD still wont put money into some form of TCAS. Maybe if it saved the occasional maxed airframe, then payback would be swift.

Gadget - how do you mean fuel constraints? That the Tornado has only a poxy short range when doing operational training, or is it the MOD penny pinching and stopping you guys from getting the training that you want and the tax payers expect?
