I suppose that if officer training were to be centralised, then Sandhurst would be the natural conclusion, as the location is more travel friendly to those likely to attend than either of the other two extremes. Cranwell would be ideally suited to either a 'Westfield' Shopping Mall concept, or perhaps reduced (demolished) to provide hardcore ballast for the HS3 East Coast rail route that could then be re-aligned to proceed through the site.
As for pay cuts above the rank of Cpl, I assume that is meant that pay cuts will be implemented all the way from Cpl up through the ranks towards GP Capt, along with flying pay being abolished for the days when aircrew are not actually flying?
