We can but hope for the right result of the Inquirey, maybe in the future that those at 'star rank' actually do read the Manual of Air Force law as many will not have read it since their days at OCTU, and then only in parts.
I hope that if the result exonerates the crew that Channel 4 news turn up at a couple of cetain address's and ask for an interview and of the ex-senior officers opinions and there views on the original report. In fact I would invite Jon Snow and their Defence correspondent and also Caroline Wyatt from the BBC to doorstep them, or just feed either of them to Jeremy Paxman on Newsnight. But, maybe just an appology to the families of the crew, who have suffered the denigration of their loved ones by unfeeling so called senior officers. Leadership, not how to do it, and maybe it should be taught how NOT to do it at Cranwell.
Although, we denigrate the Government at times, and with very good reason, Thank you for appointing Lord Phillip and to him for his deliberations and this dark episode of RAF history can now be closed with the right result even if it has taken so long to find justice for the long departed.
Thank you Brian and the many posters who have worked so hard through Pprune and other mediums for their work on behalf of Jon and Rick and their crew.
