When is the GR4 drawdown? There seems to be some slippage on that! The main point though is whether the GR4 pilots offered upto CFS have the requisite flying hours and experience to pass the initial QFI selection hurdle - there's not a lot of (quality) flying going on in that world at the moment. If not, will they have enough for the Red's? And if not - who will?
Your comment about IV is most perceptive.
