Years ago I forecast that the military would run out of cash and would have to give up some toys - Bristow's success underlines how far that has come.
If we read the runes correctly the process of 'downsizing' the public sector has only just begun. It is just possible that when REAL pressure is brought to bear that others will have to concede that the only was forward for public service aviation assets is consolidation. For me the NPAS is a chink of light in a world devoid of common sense and chock-a-block with self interest.
Let's keep up the rhetoric TC, don't give up so easily. The market is 'coming to us' as an entrepreneur would say.
