I'm an aviator with over 4000 Hours in 11 different types of RW and I don't think they were grossly negligent at all and I feel that the "Grossly Negligent" sentence should be removed However, we all know that it is the responsibility of all aircrew to ensure that the mission, sortie or task for which they have been authorised is executed in a manner that minimizes the risks and hazards to the aircraft, its occupants, ground crew, other airspace users or general public over which such aircraft are flown. In that very basic fact of airmanship they failed. That failure however, does not make them grossly negligent. Therefore I agree with the campaign committee and feel that the Gross Negligence should be over turned.
