I think you have missed the point of the thread, yes civilian owned military run contracts can work well as you say, and though I cannot speak for your outfit, it does work well at Shawbury.
However, the point (I think) of the thread is about contractorising the whole shebang Aircrew an all.
2 extra engineers to bring in line with CAA regulations, what other corners have been cut in the name of profit over the last two years?
I will balance that as the military are no different when it comes to cutting corners to save money , just as long as they get that next glossy magazine out!!
