BRL (who is a moderator) recently had a go at me for posting accident info here he claimed was not in the public domain.
In the two recent cases I posted (A) Great Oakley Fatality because I fly from nearby and (B) because I owned a Piper PA32 for a number of years which I flew from Detroit to Perth in West Australia.(The subject aircraft G-LUNA ditched off Dungeness)
BRL accused me of being someone who wanted to rubberneck and post for the sake of it.
May I remind you all that daily accident info is available here:
Aviation Safety Network > ASN Aviation Safety WikiBase > Year index > 2009
As someone who has lost a number of friends in fatal aircraft incidents over the years I find BRL's juvenile attitude to aircraft accident reports offensive.
Maybe we can have feedback here to assess the feeling to posting info on accidents?
On a personal note I am happy for any accident I am involved in to be posted and discussed here
