Hard to believe that the F3 community are the most egotistic of the FJ fraternity. Never could work out why when they have been denied an active role in any conflict since their conception. From an airframe perspective, the RAF to a retrograde step with the F3. Even the Italians wanted rid & they never want to fight!
IMHO, they can't scrap it soon enough, a total waste of tax payers money. If there is any decency out there, push the saved money towards the SH fleet.
