- what's your gripe about that ?

Blacksheep # 306..... read #297 and # 329, maybe you didn't mean it that way, but I'm not alone in interpreting your remarks as a snide sideswipe at the crew - uncalled for.

I agree that the whole thing has been over-dramatised, but what's new in that, regrettable or not ? Many years ago "Roger Bacon", the satirical columnist of "Flight" , threatened to load an aircraft with explosive and ignite it over the Farnborough Air Show so that 100,000 "experts" could categorically state that the aircraft was on fire in the air ! Nothing's changed since then. ( Nb "X" is an unknown quantity, and a spurt is a drip under pressure )

Time we all shut up until some facts emerge.
