Military transport aircraft

Too big for our use, unless we shared it (like Belgium does).
But then nootradiddly!

C390 would be a better shot for us if we were to get serious, when there are a few more in service.

Even the presence of a new third 295 will require more maintenance stands, more tools and the appropriate space to hold them, more personnel to service them, more support personnel, more training time for personnel until you get to the sweet spot where the fleet of three has enough manpower, tools, spares and so on and is self-sustaining. If it hasnt happened already, it's probably time to consider more ramp space. The Don main ramp is quite narrow and it doesnt take much to block it up. If they are sticking a hospital in there, the footprint of the place is being reduced.

Is it then time to move fixed wing ops to Shannon?

Maritime should have moved there when the first Casas arrived.
