I know, how silly of me!! It's one of my "things" as a pilot. I can never understand these guys who want to fly as close to a storm as they dare, it only ever ends in tears. Particularly in the cruise. Pointless.
Obviously we know very little about the ins and outs about this incident so I'm not going to speculate, but if it is a case of just going to close to a CB then they have no-one else to blame but themselves.
Sorry to go on but it really really winds me up!!
