DD's comments re the Tucano are certainly interesting and news to many I suspect. . Those of us who left the Service and worked in Industry could doubtless also make similar observations along the lines of the philosophy of " We make aeroplanes,only in order to make a profit" .
I suspected that a compendium of these tales would fill a very substantial book and raised this topic years ago with a now deceased well known test pilot.
He agreed totally and added that the subsequent series of court cases brought against the author would also make fascinating reading.
