I've watched them since I can remember, some 37 yrs in fact. the Hawk is getting on and must be more expensive than the Tucano to run. Given that both types are due for retirement, may be a Grob team? I think they do a marvellous job, but surely it's time to think about alternatives.
Does anyone have any info on costs of RAFAT through FOI etc? If so please post it so we can have some proper discussion?
