Mr Purdey,
I'm sure Pulse1 can take care of himself, but you appear to have missed the point of his comment. His question is this: How can Mr Wratten, you, me or anyone else for that matter say that you know, with absolutely no doubt whatsoever, what the two pilots could see from their vantage point in the cockpit?
The only person looking at the Mull from the same direction as the pilots was the yachtsman, Mr Holbrook. He has testified that he could make out the water breaking on the coastline and also see the white wall surrounding the lighthouse.
I have seen a copy of the holidaymaker's video, taken at the Mull lighthouse only a few minutes prior to the accident. You can clearly see the lighthouse, down to the coast and out over the water.
Make of all that, what you will, but unless you can tell me exactly what the pilots were looking out at, and provide evidence, your argument is weakened.
Kind regards, as always.
Brian
