Shytorque - that would be me then.
On the one hand all airline pilots are told that they must monitor 121.5 at all times on pain of being shot at by the Military.
On the other hand trying to monitor 121.5 at all times is WHILST using another radio is rendered near impossible on a nice sunny Sunday over the UK due to the near constant stream of GA use of 121.5.
That's the nub of the issue. It is not a fault or blame issue. Its simply flight safety.
