But now, on the other hand, if one Service operated all the aviation assets.....
A very worthwhile comment sure to open a can of worms A Jihad on bureaucracy and too many senior officers would also be worthwhile (The US Military has just begun a review/cutback of senior positions).

I thought that the ADF has purchased more MRH 90 than they had/have Blackhawks, and given that the MRH 90 can carry a shed load more than the short, stubby older sister (UH1H) and a bit more than the Blackhawk, it would seem that the ADF will have at least the same amount of lift capacity (with the additional capability of the CH47F when they arrive) and be able to take it further and faster, than it could on the UH1H, Blackhawk fleet. I don't have the graphs or flight manuals or glossy brochures, so I could be incorrect.
