This kind of crap was going on over four years ago when we used to do the Waddington to Thumrait shuttles Via bus to BZN Via Akrotiri Via Seeb to Thumrait. Arrive knackered to get 12 Hours off go fly a 17 hour day! Cattle on the way to an abattoir get better treatment!
The attitude of the RAF is what the MP Major is getting at and it's been crap for many a year. Don't any one dare blame the equipment because it's 40 years old, this is down to how people don't do their jobs properly and derogation of responsibility by a p*ss poor Officer Cadre.
There will eventually be another defence review, the Air Farce is going to get hammered and it will only have itself to blame for that.
