Thanks son, I appreciate your support. lol
Irrespective of peoples take on the best plan for the future on redundancy I have a few general talking points for you consideration:
- Does maintaining CHF justify the considerable cost of the Merlin transition?
- Is the in to service date for Puma 2 not too late? - Considering the small platform would have been ideal for the Olympics and Herrick will be almost complete before they can deploy?
- With RJ still looking to be a considerable way off how long do you retain crews to man it?
Secondly is there anyone out there who can see any suitable alternative options for employment of NCA inside or outside of the military? Looking for some inspiration as I feel like I'm going round in circles!
Any genuine inputs much appreciated!
