Low Flying blame culture at JHC?
This one goes out to all you lads and lasses flying Her Majesty's green helicopter fleet.
Since the first of February, we all now have to not only book in to the low flying system, but send a COPY of our route to ALFENS in order that they can 'collect statistical data' on military low flying.
It appears to me that this is a complete over-reaction to an admmitedly awful incident involving an SH and a female horse rider.
Not only will this change create a huge paper trail at the end of the month, but will make UK exercise detachments, and the nature of our business very difficult. More worryingly, perhaps this is the first step to making individual AC Commanders culpable in similar incidents (corporate manslaughter?)
Am I being too cynical? Comments please...
