No matter how much you gang up and quote previous posts (a particularly tabloidesque pastime) the facts are simple -
1.The RAF did assist with the interim contract but only on a consultancy basis and Bristows bid was found to be significantly inferior to CHC's.

3. After the interim contract (though not directly linked as you think I imply) SARH came into being but with only a small RAF contingent.
