Was that written by a spotter or someone with legitimate aviation/MPA experience?

Ha ha, neither

My uneducated and most definitely 'non domain expert' ramblings I am afraid.

You will note that it was Part 6 of a 7 part series that has a go at looking at the challenges, requirements and a set of possible options, no advocacy or sales pitch for any of the options.

Just posted the final part, a summary, if anyone fancies a read.

You can then get into the business of slagging it off!

Seriously though, have tried not to discount any option but like many I tend to think the answer is staring us in the face. I have also tried to look at the bigger picture and possible future implications for other capability areas rather than having a narrow view.

I would also add, that from a non flying landlubbers perspective, making a case for it far from easy so it comes down to priorities and 'trade offs' I suppose.
