That is a one off to get the person home, but let us say it is out of service for three months, six months or indeterminately. If there is an accident or if something hits it, the Secretary General is telling me we are here today again without a plan. I can understand it happening to the jet once, but the Secretary General is saying the Department is equally unprepared if it were to happen a second time. Do you get my point? You might reflect on it.
