For want of a penny .....
I'm sure someone was asking what the impact was of all this bolleaux, particularly to ops. Do we have any airframes stuck overseas because JPA wouldn't let an advance of payments be issued and the crew's refusal to put the subsistence costs on their credit cards and claim it back on return? (This is a rumour network after all).
I have to go to MoD next week, but I doubt very much whether the actuals will cover my costs (assuming I can get into JPA)... should I cancel? This will, after all, save money!
