But what do I know about the Chinook? PC obviously knows more.
Presumably you mean PC (Stn Cdr RAF Odiham)
and the senior Chinook operators that he felt able to consult.
Who found the suggestion that the crew could have been deceived into believing a high speed cruise climb would have given them sufficient clearance over the Mull,
was not credible.
But then it sounds as though you know better than all of them.
Matters of opinion are, by definition, not matters of fact.
Let right be done.
