Have I got this right ? ....

There's also the consideration that the NPAS participants will also contribute an additional sum towards the NPAS aircraft fleet replacement program,
to cater for when the airframes become due for replacement.

Now that S.Yorks have pulled out ( and their aircraft isn't now being binned - they are planning their own finances for future replacement ),
it's one less contributor to NPAS so those remaining would have to stump up proportionally more for the aircraft replacements ?

I did also like the question ( which didn't get answered ) ...
"So if our Police Staff pilots are "Tupe'd" across to NPAS, and our aircraft is going - What are they going to fly ?"
