Sentencing on 23rd Feb

For those who missed it - Lincoln Crown Court, 12 and 13th Feb.

A bit of to and fro during the two days pre-sentencing hearing. Speeches for the prosecution and defence as reported by the Beeb 12th -

Red Arrows death: Ejection seat firm 'put lives at risk' - BBC News

and 13th - Red Arrows death: Ejection seat failure a 'once every 115 years' event - BBC News

and rather more luridly in the Daily Express.

M-B has already agreed to pay £550,000 prosecution costs.

Adjourned to 23 February for sentencing.
