Hi LFFC - no surprise to me friend...only reflecting on the likely projections of IPS that Ascent and the MoD will have used to support the resource plan for the 25 yr MFTS PFI. While some variation will have been accounted for it will have been based on the most like force levels pre SDSR. This radical change post the SDSR will for sure cause significant recalculations for all training streams, and some greater cuts, reductions and closures than were already envisaged as part of the MFTS roll out. The fundamental question is whether the sum of the changes makes it still worth while (ie still profitable) for Ascent to continue. My overall deduction is that the flexibility left within the continuing contractura lprocess proabbly means it can....but time will tell.
