B******ks from crab again
The info I have is this
The Canadian/Jap/Italian/UK aircraft had effectively the same standards of T/R (any differences are insignificant in terms of strength etc) and all but the UK have decided that they are safe to fly with (ie keep on flying), which the airworthiness authorities have also decided, the civil aircraft never stopped and the Type Cert was not removed.
The UK MoD have single handedly taken a different tack and took the line that the all TRs in the UK must be to the latest standard to allow UK aircraft to return to flight, this is now being done.
This does not mean WHL or AG are culpable (as is always assumed) as ALL TR types are still airworthy.
Preaching from the same hymn sheet yet again, until the report is out what do we know.....
nothing firm
but a little bird says get ready to eat your words CRAB as the supposed cracks you were so keen about have nothing to do with the incident
PS anybody got news on the US pilot involved (ie his health now?)
