* 801 will stand up late next year as part of the NSW, making 4 sqns in total.
Good news - welcome back to 801 NAS in their own right.
What will the revised structure be......4 x 12 ac squadrons with 2 RAF heavy (RAF OC) and 2 RN heavy (RN CO) was the original plan for 2004 - is parity (iaw the original JFH agreement) to be achieved eventually? If so, this should be welcomed by both services and perhaps stop some of the more crude efforts at the highest level to drive a wedge into this outstanding Joint force. One to watch! H-W
