The Coroner's letter to Secy of State Ben Wallace setting out her 'matters of concern' makes interesting reading.

Her role is to establish cause of death. Her two matters of concern relate to cause of accident, an entirely different thing. It is seemingly of no concern that the pilot lived yet Jonathan died. Which is actually MoD's formal position.

Her stance seems to have changed once the issues raised at the Inquest were collated and sent up to the Chief Coroner. A political direction imposed upon her? She cannot help but notice the contradictions between her words of November and those of December.
