BV, the point isn't so much what clever-clogs training you provide in the Hawk T2 these days, which is no doubt rather different to that which I experienced my Gnat/Hunter time - it's simply that the RAF has shrunk to such an extent that any increase in training capability to cater for the input numbers which might be needed to cope with the reportedly large outflow numbers cannot now be achieved.
There simply aren't the resources, irrespective of the current standards of training.
