Thanks.

Do you think he should apologise Baston? (CAZ you mean)

I have seen you raise not a single word of complaint about these.
Fair and balanced are we?
Has he been libellous?

Well - no. He believes I think, as I do that this aircraft was flown in cloud into the ground. I have not seen anything to dispute this sad fact. There is a hell of a lot of negative arguement, "the what if" brigade, but no evidence to dissuade me that to fly an apparently - ie: not proven otherwise - serviceable aircraft into the ground in IMC was at the very least careless and probably negligent. I was not on the BOI or privy to the RO,s deliberations so that is far as I can possibly go.

The surrounding airworthiness issues, breakfast et all are very much chaff in my opinion and do not add much to the discussion of the last tragic moments of flight that against all the rules was in cloud..
