2. The name of the Royal Navy air defence fighter to protect the fleet is called what?

3. The maximum operational height of the Royal Navy AEW helicopter is?

3. The average age of these helicopters is?

4. The Dominie, used to train weapons systems operators is now 45 years old. True or false?

5.The RAF fast jet trainer is the Hawk. How old is it?

A few questions for you.
1. The maritime reconnaisance and search and rescue roles are currently carried out by which aircraft?

A.Whatever happens to be seviceable at any given moment, with a crew available.

2. The name of the Royal Navy air defence fighter to protect the fleet is called what?
A. I believe the FAA Historic Flight have been given a secondary role now.

3. The maximum operational height of the Royal Navy AEW helicopter is?

A) That rather depends on which particular airframe you are talking about.

3. The average age of these helicopters is?

A.See above, some are only 30 years old though!

4. The Dominie, used to train weapons systems operators is now 45 years old. True or false?
A. The Dominie has been used to train almost every non-pilot aircrew (including ALM's) since the demise of the Varsity and expense of the Argosy T. Mk1.

5.The RAF fast jet trainer is the Hawk. How old is it?

A. See answer 3!


Well, I never wanted to be in politics 8)
