The head of the Royal Air Force has told Forces News the service doesn't "have the training places" to get all personnel flying on the frontline, but is working to accelerate the process.

Speaking to Forces News at RAF Akrotiri, Cyprus, Air Chief Marshal Sir Mike Wigston said the service has had to slow down training whilst making "space on the frontline".
