Dont think anymore cuts can be made, unless we bin Gazelles and Lynx. Need to find some money to replace the Puma and quickly too!!

Hmm, let me guess.
Reduce fleet flying hours, but increase tasking. Yet another attempt by the light blue to insist that Apache should be flown by them, not the Army. When will Future Lynx arrive, and how many will be bought (far too few, that's for sure). How to keep current Lynx going until late arrival of Future Lynx. Likelihood of keeping a viable Puma fleet pending delivery of replacement (NH90/EH101/S92/Chinook or Sweet FA). Impact of SKIOS/IMOS/TLCS - ie costs go up, availability goes down. G&Ts all round and let's hope for a posting to Strike Command.
Not that I am cynical.
