Thanks Keg.
Small industry isn't it! And no, your post was far from boring, and as should be with these sort of things, hopefully lessons can be learned, even years later.
The time-line for the location/recovery of BUO is interesting. I know it was quite a while before the main wreckage was recovered, but I must admit I wasn't aware they had located the general area of the crash site as early as the next day!
As for you being sent home? In the last 25 years I've spent in this game, I've looked back and wondered "what if" a few times as well.
Fragile thing life.
