Distant Voice:
nothing has changed to the basic system in 38 years
You mean apart from the AAR system!
I don't believe that anyone is having a go at Jimmy Jones for being concerned with the safety of the Nimrod; in fact this is to be highly commended. But I strongly disagree with his absolute comments such as, "
If the MoD had acted on BAE Systems’ recommendations, those 14 crew members would still be alive today".
If you appear in the media as an expert, you need to be an expert. Having left the RAF before the AAR system was fitted to the Nimrod, in my opinion, leaves huge holes in Jimmy's technical knowledge and experience.
