G-EMMA thanks for that I am hopeless with computers!
The point of my post was to get GA to be more responsible for our actions and not get ourselves on the radio and in the papers. Accidents do happen its a fact of life, but the last two on the island have had a bit of a human input both could have been thrown away at an early stage. As an instructor I do go thru tyres, before a first solo I will demo an emergency stop and will generally pop the door on a student to find out what they do. Why continue when it does not feel right, look right, perform right or sound right
I do not like to say it, but if GA keeps having accidents which can be avoided the NIMBYs will have some of the best airfields in the UK shutdown!!!

Lets take action now and think about safety!
