Hello all
Roguedent et al, I admit to not being fully aware of absolutely all the facts concerning this event but having spent a decade in our little Air Corps (monty, we are as "proper" as we need to be.Besides, we export our men to fill the gaps in your ranks that your young men won't fill) seeing pilots per-petuate the same kind of stunt over and over again and occasionally having to go and pick up the pieces(twice...not pleasant), it gets a bit weary to read about it in the newpapers and to find his peers implicity supporting him (which, in fairness, is right,too), no matter how wrong he was.
regards
TDD
