Isn't it a little bit funny how all these programs about flight desasters come out just before the peak holiday season begines? The comments about frightening the flying public are, I think, very true. Year on year the programme producers will dig out old footage of mangled aeroplane, and have relatives in a highly emotive state saying how they descovered how their loved ones were on a doomed flight. This does aviation no favours; it only helps to scare off those who have a fear of flying even more. What this type of journalism does not tell you is that you are more likely to be involved in a road accident than a plane crash. So for all the journalists who may stumble on this, can we have more balanced reporting please?
On a different tack, OneMileHigh, When were you on Harriers? I worked on GR 1, 1a 3, T2 and T4's at Wit, Wil and Gut. Yes I know it was some years ago, and a good time was had by all!
