Walter, I will not be drawn into detail, but I had a number of close friends on that flight. I can say, with absolute confidence, that there was no plan to land at any LZ on or near the Mull. Please let go of that particular hypothesis.
Me too, and I can also say with certainty that there was no intent to land there.

The conspiracy theorists speculate on the fact that this was the top echelon of the Province's counter terrorist officers being flown by a Chinook SF crew. I can tell you that it was purely coincidental that a SF crew was on duty that day. The very same task was flown by a Chinook the year before with an 'ordinary' crew.
