For example in your case you could go down to your local library in Aston Close on Tuesday morning when it next opens at 10am. Give the nice librarian the ISBN and either 50p if there is a copy in Wiltshire or £3 to do an inter-library loan. The english library system is a very undervalued gem in the age of the internet.

Brian, I don't know where you are in Australia, but I do know a similar inter-library service is possible from the Public Library Service in SA at least.
So what might not be as it seems?
Perhaps that this was not long before 1/4/84 when the assets and liabilites of the statutory corporation British Airways were vested in British Airways plc and that before the privitisation 3 years latter were B737 G-BGJL (55 dead) and BV234 G-BWFC (45 fatalities).
Perhaps its BA's slow response to the prior G-ASWI accident in Aug 1981 or the G-BDIL accident in Sept 1982 after which AIB first recommended what became AVAD. Or perhaps its that the AIB did not publish these recommendations until August 1983 and June 1984, after G-BEON's accident.
Perhaps the wrecakge of G-BEON is in a secret AAIB bunker just over the Berkshire canal along with the relics of an alien spacecraft that crash landed at Avebury.

<<Though I doubt it!>>
Or perhaps its the tragegy that 10 people have died in the Gulf of Mexico as recently as 23 March 2004 over 20 years after the first AIB recommendation for the lack of the completely alien in the US, but cheap and simple AVAD system.
However I'd be facinated to be enlightened.
