Nig,
Given what you have just written, can you advise us as to whether or not the MOD are allowed to ignore these rulings?
Are they simply immune from the mandatory implementation of flight safety issues (the Airworthiness Notice) because they are 'military' or what?
Even if they were allowed to ignore the rulings, there is clearly a possible danger of an aircraft (like TWA 800) exploding over a built-up area, which I would have felt made it an absolute 'No No' to ignore the Airworthiness Notice?
And how on earth can the MR4 project have got away with ignoring the notice?
Thanks for the info
TSM
