Mr P
I do not know Jimmy Jones, although perhaps I should, as our time at ISK must have overlapped at some time.
I agree entirely with your sentiments, and again, I would in no way imply that the groundcrew are to blame at all for the loss. I do understand their concerns, but they must understand that they are not being blamed at all. It clearly statwes in the report that it is the POLICY that is (partly) to blame.
The thing about what JJ said, is that he might just be correct you know?
I'm not saying he is, but the 'facts' speak for themselves, and he may well be correct in his comments.
If the MOD had acted after the BAe report than maybe ......?
If they had acted after the QQ report then maybe ........?
If more attention had been given over the fuel leaks, then maybe .....?
I accept that we will never really factually know, but you have to say, that simply ignoring reports from so-called 'experts' is not the best way to conduct matters?

The Winco
