answer text <p>Equipment supplied to the Ministry of Defence by German arms manufacturers has no restriction on use while it remains in our possession and under our control. Should the UK wish to subsequently sell, loan, or transfer such equipment to our allies and partners then all such sharing would be subject to the relevant laws on intellectual property, national export regulations and licence conditions that identify and control the end user, and reflect international arms controls and human rights legislation.</p> more like this

answer text <p>There are no 'ghost' helicopter training courses. There are, however, occasions when a course may be cancelled for a number of reasons, which could include a change in demand for student output or a slower than expected progress of students.  When reasons for course cancellation are directly related to Ascent, the company is not paid. When the reasons for course cancellation are Ministry of Defence related, Ascent are remunerated in accordance with contract terms.</p> more like this
