sheer boredom with folk who cannot see where the negligence ocurred!
Boredom? Boredom??

I'm so very sorry that you feel 'bored', Purdey, but others are more concerned about justice and the real truth rather than mere boredom... Justice will out, even if it might be 'inconvenient' for those in the MoD more concerned with political expediency than the good name of the Chinook crew.

As for where the negligence lay? Pretty obviously with those allegedly managing airworthiness standards.

Anyway, all this information will be passed on to the next PM, so that he might know the truth rather than whatever biased rubbish will be fed to him by MoD $hit-filtering civil serpents.

Anyone who ever had the misfortune to serve under Wratten will know full well why he had the the nickname he did; it was, if anything, far too generous... Certainly not someone who would be likely to take an impartial view of an aircraft accident....

I'm still firmly of the opinion that any other verdict would have laid the MoD exposed to accusations of corporate homicide, the financial consequences of which would have been very expensive. So Wratten and Day were determined to find a way, any way of avoiding the truth coming into the public domain.
