Ian Shoesmith,

You do no favours to the "PRESS" that you represent by trawling here for stories.

When I read a news story about aviation, I find that a lot of the information put forward as fact is incorrect. (It's not difficult to check facts, use Google)

This causes my wife to tell me to stop nit picking, but if I can see holes in stories about a subject in which I have some knowlege (40 years in aviation), what conclusions can I draw when it comes to stories about which I have little knowlege.

Anything I read in print or see on TV, I now treat with a lot of scepticism.

Slowly becoming a grumpy old man,
Regards, Dixi188.
