Zyder, thanks for the heads up on the RN system. Simples for you perhaps, but me and my ducks are more confused than ever! OK, for General read Admiral Melchett. He receives SI report from President who has taken the little chat he had previously to heart, and his finding while cognisant of the advice from RNFSAIC is that the Scruggs BB can indeed continue to fly subject to newly increased operating limits on AUW, speed and manoeuvring. He also has an urgent recommendation from RNFSAIC that the type be grounded wie and a complete rebuild of the tail assembly initiated, as he first suspected would be called for. He is still disinclined to do so. What happens next?
