Just remind me, how is this going to save money
I doubt that the arrangements made by South Yorkshire to retain their aircraft will save them any money at all,
and they know that, but have allowed common sense and an appreciation of just how valuable their asset is, to prevail
Then again, I can't remember hearing ANYONE saying they have been convinced that
they will save any money under NPAS, at least not for many years, if at all.
It all seems to have moved on from the original "Improved service at a reduced cost",
to a Dictated service at an unknown cost - which could even be higher than the Pre-NPAS cost.
