Huge shame really as the annual running cost is vey low at £5-6M
That would be the £5-6m that could be spent on better kit...Maybe get rid of the ancient Anvis goggles we are forced to wear.... and get some new ones....
Notwithstanding that, the £5-6m PA figure is rubbish. The capitation rates just don't add up to make £5-6m.
It costs Circa £9m just to operate the aircraft.
