BA cadets share a poky room in the desert with the odd black widow and some cockroaches
Seem to remember helping you remove about 500 flies from the ceiling with a broom after a barby!!! Only the 'odd' cockroach?
As Hand Solo said, the training has already been paid for. I expect these cadets had already started at OATS before Sept 11th and this intensive flying period had been planned and paid for by then. No reason not to send them.
