Gentlemen (and Ladies),
I am sure it will not have escaped your attention that Lord Philip is conducting a review of the Mull of Kintyre tragedy. As part of that inquiry, it does not take the brains of an archbishop to reaslise that the engineering safety and design husbandry of the Chinook from the mid-1980s onwards raises more than a few questions (this was confirmed by ministers in Westminster in the late 1990s).
The Recent Haddon-Cave Review pointed the finger at the loss of the RAF's Chief Engineer (CE) as one of the prime reasons for the acknowledged systemic failings in the RAF's adherence to safety directives.
Therefore, I would imagine that there are a number of questions about the record of the Chinook that we would all like to ask of all the most recent CEs. To that end, who exactly were the incumbents of the post of RAF Chief Engineer? (I have checked the Google & RAFweb and can find only one).
