FL - Not for one minute suggesting that you would/could influence the CAA

But your supportive attitude,advice and offer off help were, I am sure, an example to us all.

SAR Bloke - All comments noted, and taken in the spirit that they were offered (before someone "half-reads" and starts flaming.

In this instance (not knowing otherwise) let's assume that the helo was put down and shut down in the right place,and that the FW Pilot was completely uninjured, apart from scratches etc, and there was a concern about leaking fuel.

However, your warnings appreciated, and although I'm never going to be in Dominic's situation, I'll remember them in the event of coming across an RTA
