Deepest sympathy
As an ex crew-chief who knew the majority of the crew, my heart goes out to the families and colleagues of the victims of this tragic event. My particular sadness goes out to the families of Gez, Q and mostly Ady who shared many a ciggy with me on the pan before a see-off. A real gent and a great loss.
With all the furore about the press, the Government and political "point-scoring" please don't loose track of the real issue here. They were all professional and respected guys who were devoted to what they were doing and came to a sad end, doing what they wanted to do.....fly.
Let us not forget the unfortunate soldiers on board the aircraft either.
Come Tuesday, when they return to Kinloss, we must treat them with the respect and honour they deserve.
Rest in peace.
