All up from this review I think that the Connie was and is pretty safe.
I don't think anyone could disagree with that.
But
ASKARIs point remains regardless of whose and what type of aircraft it was.
The simple test is, were this damage caused by any other aircraft of the same weight in commercial, or any other operation for that matter, what would have been the resulting action, from CASA and the Council.
