ORAC,
I believe the role of 17 Sqn is to do UK operational testing, isn't that why it's an OEU? As I said in my original post, there are tasks that can be completed without a full clearance.
I agree with you that the fiasco of the F-35s IOC has dropped everything behind schedule...was there a realistic one?
