Air Accidents Investigation: G-BLUN Report Sections
The report into the Morcambe Bay tragedy has been published - See the other thread for responses regarding that incident.
But it does prove a lot of what we have talked about on this thread. Namely, experience doesn't count for much, anyone can be caught out. Night flying isn't a science, what can work for one approach one night, won't work for another. Visual cues are not there and disorientation can happen quickly with the other crew member not necessarily aware of your problem and potentially not able to establish safe control.
This report makes for very sad reading as many reading this thread are North Sea pilots who feel they have been close to that situation - But this is more than just a statistic, you can read their words, see their thought process, and who amongst us can say "that could never happen to me" ?
