The German Air Force stated publicly that there was "no technical defect". So there goes that theory ( if you believe it).. .We speculated aswell about a possible separation of the tail fin which also causes a pitch up movement especially in a turn ( so I was told by our chief engineer), we had to mod all our 205's because of a cracking problem at the join, apparantly the GAF didn't do the mod.. .I think they are probably trying to shove it onto the crew 100% which is easy ( they tried it with the Mul of Kintyre crash aswell which was, thank god, unsuccessful in the end) now that they had that much booze in them.. .I saw their UH-1's flying around the very next day which was a bit suspect considering the implications if there was a defect. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
