No problem with discussion, but Flying Lawyer is unlikely to join in, perhaps you can guess why.
Perhaps I'm being overly cautious, but the discussion about this on other groups has been a bit controversial, to put it mildly.
My major fear is that that the accident cause has been at best over-stated with regard to accuracy and at worst has been down right wrongly reported, leading to possibly false impressions to be gained. Those that have read the report will have a problem equating a tested 10g equivalent failure load on a defectively modified component with the conclusions, for example.
Clearly there were many errors and ommissions by several people and organisations in this accident, as is often the case. My concern is that the focus has been on one man, who played a part in the chain, to the exclusion of all else.
One cannot help but wonder if this prosecution is in the public interest.
