The root cause of the incident was a Nav who couldn't
To put the views of AA (as opposed to a_a!) into perspective
and a genuine question rather than a fishing exped ... and certainly hoping not to kick off a J's vs K's thread but ... are the J's used for routine para training (when it happens) and if so, do they put a Nav on board or not? If not (which I would assume is the case
) who controls the Red to Green switch - the Co or the Loadie? Or is it controlled automatically by the little black box that does the nav's job for you?
Edited to add : I know the DT article states a K was used in this particular instance but curious about about the broader training requirement issues with regards to platform availability etc.
