The Hellenic Air Force cancelled its scheduled training activities from Monday the 26th to Friday the 30th of September due to its bad finances.
According to daily newspaper Elefterotypia, the above mentioned training is part of the general training “Alexander-2011” and aimed at retraining recruits on how to use the new weapon systems.
The amount of 150,000 Euros required for the recruits’ nutrition, clothing, shoes, transportation and compensation needs cannot be covered by the Air Force after the successive budget cuts it has suffered.
Therefore, Air Force officials thought it necessary to cancel the training.
