Looks like some Grob woes..

Military Aviation A forum for the professionals who fly military hardware. Also for the backroom boys and girls who support the flying and maintain the equipment, and without whom nothing would ever leave the ground. All armies, navies and air forces of the world equally welcome here.

Looks like some Grob woes..

Air Cadets? I should imagine they will be well down the pecking order as to getting their air experience ones back in the air.

Well down the pecking order? Can't come lower in a list of two than second... It's only them and the UAS using the Tutor, no? EFT is all Prefect now, as I understand it.

RN and Army use the Tutor for Flying Grading at Yeovilton and Middle Wallop.

16 Sqn also still delivering various bits of regular military flying training, as are several of the UASs. 115 still deliver QFI training as a regular military task.

Fair enough. But 'Grob woes' and 'a Grob' is still lazy and unhelpful!
