I've been reading this document for the last few days (and being interupted by work!)
I can say that this investigation by Haddon-Cave QC has established a standard for future investigations that will be hard to achieve, let alone better. I would kill for the ability and resources to be able to produce a report as he has.
Should we (and we should) look at Government Departments, National Regulators, Airline Managements and ourselves as Haddon-Cave QC has done then I fear we will all be found wanting.
I for one, hope this wake up call to (in particular) the bean-counters of the world is recognised, regretably I doubt whether they understand that there is a real world outside a P & L sheet or whatever they get all hot and sweaty about.
The contents I have read thus far are actually not surprising, what is surprising is that it has taken this long for somebody to document them.
Haddon-Cave QC has done us all a serious favour, thank you Sir.
