I personally found the approach to C17 very refreshing. BD/QQ were desperate to get their fingers into the programme and cite the same issues. The intelligent safety case presented for the aircraft is how it was introduced in a year and a day. I just hope no-one ever decides to operate outside the bounds of that safety case, QQ would surely ground the aircraft while they start from scratch.
lol - allowing the crews to wear US flying kit is a small price to pay, and they do look soooo pretty!!!
