PercyDragon This thread has served not only to debate the subject, but to keep hundreds of current & former RAF personnel (and countless others) informed on the progress of the campaign to clear Jon & Rick's names. The length of the debate serves to prove the point that there are a number of possible factors involved in the accident, a point which the MoD has yet to grasp. The thread will remain relevant until the end of the campaign.
Of course the decision to "put the thread to bed" rests with Danny & the Admins. We are fortunate to enjoy the support of PPRuNe, and the campaign is very grateful for that support.
Just as everyone is welcome to join the debate and contribute (regardless of their point of view), you equally have the right to leave the debate & stop reading the thread. Personally I think any debate is strengthened by diversity of opinion.
