"The audio clearly demonstrates a crew that was undisciplined and unprofessional. I'm saddened that they lost their lives but I cannot "give them a break"

"As a crew we did the "dirty deeds" in a calm manner with both of us knowing and understanding the risks of what we were doing. There was no "Top Gun Yeehawing" and such... Just a pair of men, (sorry ladies - there were none in the SH force back then), exploring their limits and in every case we deferred to the side of safety because, let's be quite honest, none of us were trying to die."

Two scenarios, neither authorised and both totally and utterly unprofessional. In one 3 folk tragically die in the other 2 folk live to transgress another day and another day and another day and eventually live to tell the tale................

Over to you
