LL - Although the RAF and QQ have made some forms of acceptance and adjustment statements I dont think BAE have (yet). So it is difficult to remark on any change in their stance to date.


Example of Tolerable: - Mainwheel tyre rapid deflation on landing.
Likelyhood is high - Consequence is Potentially Fatal.

CURE is to build a totally damage resistant tyre (of approx 1 ton(ne) weight). and having to redesign the whole aircraft to pick the landing gear up!

Within my understanding of "As Low As Reasonably Practicable". The practicality aspect has passed the 'reasonable' point.

...unless you know a better example?
