Suppose they need a fleet of engineers and fitters to fix and maintain aircraft, they need all the usual secretarial staff, bunches of training staff. Does seem a lot though doesnt it.

Possibly not. How many jobs are harder than flying (e.g.) a front line fighter? I imagine specialist surgeons have a similar ratio to other medical and non-medical staff.
