Common Sense creeping back?

With Polet returning the AHs directly into Wattisham (rather than Brize), is this the first sign of some common sense returning?

(I bet the locals won't know what's hit them, a f-ing great Antonov should give them something to complain about!)


Or perhaps Polet are flexible enough to accomodate whatever the customer wants?

Perhaps 'cos it was a contract, and we had to specify a delivery airfield, then we could nominate wherever we liked? If the AT fleet did it, there would be the usual argument of having to fly another sector after delivery (Wattisham to Brize/Lyneham) that otherwise wouldn't have been needed. Not trying to justify why we don't do it. If it were up to me we'd have more aircraft, more sims, more crews and more flexibility but hey ho.

We could always just pay the ruskki's.
