Homelover, as a recipient of one of those pm's in which you continue to attack DV and call him a troll, as well as informing me that I am a fool to believe that he wants to reform Mil Air Accident Investigation, I would appreciate it if you played the ball rather than the man (no more Latin tags you'll notice!).
Whatever the pros and cons of the AAIB's findings in this case, at least they are the AAIB's and not that of someone else pulling its strings.
As you seem to have an aversion to PQ's and FoI's, perhaps the answer is for the MOD to stop withholding information and lying in FoI replies. If in addition it followed its own regulations in the first place there would be far more resources for it to devote to safety.
Tuc is right, there is a queue of those who have issued rulings and illegal orders. People have died as a consequence. The RAF has been diminished in its capability as a consequence. Should they be required to make a plea, or just Andy Hill?
