You’re probably on the right lines there chaps: it may well be that if the going gets tough, the cavalry [Merlins and Chinooks] come over the horizon and the contractorised groundcrew – c/w 84 Sqn – no longer have a role to play. But how long does it take to send for the cavalry? Who delivers the SH while you’re waiting? And anyway, are the cavalry going to be available? - They could easily be too committed elsewhere considering our current shortfalls. There’s a cost in all this and its called flexibility. It appears that we can’t afford to be flexible in Cyprus and 84 Sqn are going to have to make do with the new sqn structure – hence Myra trying to be positive about it all. However, please let us not go away with the feeling that this is acceptable. Its going to happen - but it aint right.
