MAN UP and DRY YOUR EYES.
Lets just hope you never have to be put in the situation that the servicemen and women's family have been put through by losing their nearest and dearest. There is no price that can be put on someones life, its a sad state of affairs that accountants dictate whether a vital piece of kit is worth its expenditure over a life.

My heart goes out to the families affected and i will be signing the petition, and reccommend others do if it helps save other lives.

Rant over!! happy flying everyone!!
