Caz, all that you and Sir John are stating is the blindingly obvious, ie they didn't turn left (as planned) but flew straight on into a cloud covered hill. Well, duh, we all know that! What we don't know is why, well except for Sir John, you and others who "know" it was because of the "recklessness" of the pilots. What he, or you, or others do not mention is the "recklessness" of those that ensured that the aircraft tasked for that sortie was unairworthy and known to be so. That for me is a far more likely reason why it crashed. I can't prove it but I don't have to. Sir John was supposed to show that there was no doubt whatsoever in finding Gross Negligence by the pilots. He didn't, you didn't, others didn't. Therefore a Gross Injustice, a compromised Accident Investigation and 15 years of shame for the Royal Air Force. Time it was sorted!
