Nigel probably find that RAAF will head down the G550/650's as replacement for the 604's. 1 it keeps the aircraft as a single type easier on maitnence even though operated by two different SQN's, 2 the range as RAAF wanted something with a little extra legs than the 604's. The white paper will be very interesting as there will be if the rumors are true a lot of investment. The BBJ's and 604's are coming up for end of their lease in 2017 so expect an announcement on that front soon.
