In my time in the RAF there was one Aircraft Accident for approximately every fortnight I served- and I was in for more than 31 years. A total of 764 accidents with fatalities running into hundreds.
Your last post cannot be read as anything other than an absolutely stunning condemnation of the RAF's record on flight safety. They're really not very good at it are they?

May I suggest that this is very possibly linked to their utterly unenlightened approach to accident investigation?

tucumseh's comment regarding the irrelevance of a 'potentially' similar incident merely confirms my view.

Incidentally. Precisely the incident referred to by Thud and blunder was NEVER ruled out by the president of the BOI.

And for extremely good reason!
