Limited facilities for detachments - not based - as stated in the article.

Change out of £60M after paying for extra pan space wouldn’t pay for the bowling alley....

There's plenty space at a decent-sized airfield near Lossie, now rather quiet since the Nimrods and the incumbent VGS were flung on the scrapheap, now host only to a couple of Cessnas and a few Pongos.

Might not need to spend 60 million quid either.

Too common sense of course for the Ministry Of Dunces.

Has anyone told wee Krankie the Yankees are coming? Lossie could be following Faslane into SBA status in a foreign land.

TelsBoy. I’m afraid you are showing a lack of understanding about P-8A operations.

The Wee Krankie's got other matters causing a distraction at present, the allegations being made against Fred Flintstone for one!
