For the last decade, there have been rumours of moving all RAF Phase 1 (initial) training to Cranwell and closing Halton. However, there have always been reasons found to keep Halton open, not least I guess the need for Families' Quarters for HQ Air. As already stated, the BRNC option is often touted. Incidentally, VX275, Lincolnshire isn't too bad - house prices cheaper than Wendover for a start!
