Thanks for the compassion Beagle! I was certainly not asking “can I get free training, then skip the air force?” nor “If the air force isn’t good enough for me, can I escape?”. Apologies to anyone who may have got the wrong idea.
As for the 757’s, I would guess that The Woman will have to do less airline flying (as apparently the 727-100’s were restricted from many international airports due noise). Maybe a brand new VIP kit-out for one of them as well? If these are true, I’m sure The Woman would love to let the taxpayer fork out for new equipment!
