F-BVFD
How long was she allowed to fly seriously "out of rig"? Not especially comforting re: BEA and its decisions?? The pursuit of money at the expense of safety constantly "Corrodes" the Industry's "Badge" ?? The history of Concorde is replete with corner cutting, and a general disrespect for the aircraft itself and the people who flew her. IMO.
At the risk of descending into the more "fundamental", aren't we entertaining the effects of "sloppy maintenance" around?? Even a long established "Non-Fix" of tyre problems. Again, my point is to draw attention to those who "Game" the Process of safe flight, not the relative aspects of culpability for an accident seemingly caused by crap maintenance. It is this inclination to be satisfied with "Blame" as a conclusion rather than fixing systemic problems that engendered the tragedy, that baffles me.
