Of the P8, what happened to the four blow jobs are better than two doctrine that even the Japanese agreed with and built their own four engined maritime aircraft ?......

And whilst the Flightsim image looks the part, I would point out the airstair is an option on the 737, so that would be binned in the interests of economy, why have / give RAF crews an easy access facilty, when waiting for steps / landrover roof / tractor roof etc is a perfectly feasible option....
