    • Abstract:
      Finland could ruin the struggling Eurotraining advanced European jet pilot training programme if it bales out and buys its own fleet of new-generation BAE Systems LIFT Hawks. Rumours at the show suggest Finland is poised to join Denmark, Norway, Great Britain, Ireland, and Turkey in quitting Eurotraining. Finland's trainer requirement is one of the largest among the 12 current Eurotraining member nations, and if both Finland and the RAF were to select the Hawk, they would form an aircraft fleet almost as large as that required by the rump of Eurotraining members.
