I'd start with CAS, and I'd like the MPs to ask him for how many years the RAF were flying children in aircraft that were not, by definition, airworthy. (If you don't have a full auditable record of the material state of an aircraft, and don't know what the current configuration is, then it's not airworthy). By the way, for what it's worth (and thats not much) I'd guess around ten years at least.
Methinks it would be easier to get a Van Gelder winch through the eye of a needle than see the above happen
.......oh, I wonder what has happened to the Van Gelder winches, are they rusting in the corner of a disused airfield somewhere?
This is what they used to look like
