The headline:
But still our clowns in the UK, under “Astra”, are still barrelling towards 80:20 or even 90:10 synthetic to live flying ratios. I thought the whole idea of Air Safety was to learn from each others’ mistakes?
Nailed it, The B Word. Ask any current operator what would make them more lethal and proficient and they will tell you Astra with its 80:20 synth:live balance is not the answer; the hierarchy are on crack. Alas, they keep drinking the synthetic Kool-Aid and they won’t be told and won’t admit it’s the wrong path to walk.
