As someone who was born and bred in Cumbria, and learnt to fly at Carlisle in 1972, I became aware of RM and have “followed” his career.
It was common knowledge that he would stick his head well above the parapet often coming to the attention of Air Safety Enforcement (CAA).
A certain TEFLON effect?
That effect failed post COMED with the HMG banning him as a company director.
During his interview with Manchester’s finest, he claimed his crash landing was similar to ‘Sully on the Hudson’ and perhaps a film will eventually be made.

He was unaware that the CAA were the other side of the one way glass.
The subsequent court case and AAIB report on G-BAKH is a matter of public record.

As for the Sala accident, this matter is still active and I shall treat it as sub judice.
The relationship between Cardiff FC and one Mr Henderson, who it is alleged would fly their personnel and on this alleged occasion acted as ‘agent’ for the fateful flight ~ one of the many aspects under investigation.
