Caz,
Then he should have had the common sense to listen to Sqn Ldr Burke, who was the "best available" expert in 1994. What was his Chinook experience?
Had he ever even used a TANS computer?

The main reason MOD and supporters are so keen to discredit Mr Holbrook is because he challenges AM Wrattens contention that negligence had taken place at or before Waypoint change. Flying "too fast" for the conditions.
Holbrook has the aircraft at sensible height and speed and in VMC around that very point.
Calling other witnesses to confirm this could only embarrass the AM further.
Why was Holbrook not questioned further? Probably down to the addage:
"When in a hole, stop digging."
