it's a shame my first post is written in disgust.

I've been reading and learning from pprune forums for several years now, and not being in the industry have been content to observe and keep my mouth shut.

But tonight I feel obliged to send in this link as yet another example of the appalling journalism that tends to swarm around such terrible accidents as these.

news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/from_our_own_correspondent/newsid_2099000/2099421.stm

if that doesn't work, the article is currently on the bbc news homepage under the 'grief amid the wreckage' title.

Sure, there's eight million tons of crap written about aviation every day, but to have such gutless, provocative and cheap garbage come from the bbc is a new low, at least for me.

It needs to be seen to be believed.
