VR, this isn't about 1 aircraft loss, this is about deficient defensive aids on our AT fleet that was highlighted by the loss of 179. Who knows what would have saved 179? Foam may very well have prevented the fuel tanks going up and thats all that matters. The proper argument for fire retardent foam has been made countless times on these pages - we certainly aren't looking sympathy. I fail to see what your point is.



And yes, we know what you do - the comedy of you boys "big-timing" it round bsr is enough to keep us all amused
