Recently a whole UK C-130 Sqn has been disbanded due to a lack of airframes equating to insufficent trg hrs available to maintain operational output.

Crews were often getting less than 5 hrs per month

The NATO Stanag which stipulates min flying hrs has been withdrawn from UK forces for some time - you try finding reference to minimum fg hrs requirements in any UK military aviation publications.
