Bearing in mind the SF do already train in other areas (as mentioned in the article), they should perhaps move to training in Fort Bragg, as the quality of training would be superior to what the RAF can offer. Then everyone is a winner (except the AT fleet, when bean counters hear than one if AT's roles has diminished.....Used or not)

Edited to add: I have no beef with the fact that the RAF may not have enough resources to be able to do the training, but am always amazed at certain light blue types who have no understanding whatsoever of why and how the the parachute training is important/enhancing, yet still spout the usual cobblers of how is it not needed in this day and age.
