He did however mention 6 MPA crew (No specific trades mentioned) working in Canada until April 2014 to sustain MPA/ISTAR skills.
Just to clarify, that's 6 x crewpersons (ie 0.5 Nimrod crew) not 6 x MPA crews, I'm sure that's what you meant to say! Wouldn't want to give anyone the wrong idea.
It was only a matter of time before this widely known (within the community) state of affairs came out into the public arena and, although my focus now lies firmly outside the service, I shall watch this thread with great interest and probably much amusement!
