The studies also looked at sqn structure whereby a sqn appeared to be manned for, say, 14 aircraft when actually there were only 9 or 10 on the front line strength
Surely the squadrons are manned to their FEAR requirement which then drives the number of aircraft required at the front line to meet the training and currency needs of that manning?
'this is what the RN do, therefore, so should you'
How is it sorted where there are 'independent' single service units within a joint organisation? For example did the NSW undertake 6 month roulements on HERRICK (because they could within the RN rules)?
