Specuation
JFC90
You are, of course, quite right, and I obviously did not make it clear enough that my comments were based on "leaked" and hence inevitably speculative, reports that MOD has done little to counter, including the ST article on remarks by the Stn Cdr Kinloss. Yours is the first time that I have seen a comment that the FI installation was extensively re-engineered - not that this would necessarily meet all of the relevant standards, and carrying out a safety analysis is little use if its results were not to be implemented - were they?
All of this aside having seen how the Chinook BOI was "manipulated" (which I will happily justify in a PM if you wish) I am, like everyone else, very suspicious of the reasons for the continuing delays!
