I just want to sympathise with the families of the two pilots, I can only imagine the relief and the tears tonight. I myself am the father of a member of Ground Crew on the Tornado fleet and can imagine the satisfaction but also the anger and disgust that they must feel towards the system that denigrated the memory of their sons,brother and allowed an injustice to fester for so long.

They must regard Wratten and Day as two of the most arrogant and incompetent clowns the RAF has ever produced. I doubt those two will do any other than shrug their shoulders though. As for the inactions by subsequent and many Defence Secretaries, well mostly Labour, which says it all really.

I`m sure tonight they will swell with pride at the memory of two fine young men who died with honour and the respect of so many. Now perhaps they can Rest in Peace...they deserve to..

Oh yes to BarbiesBoyfriend a word of advice, if you have nothing intelligent to say its often better to keep quiet.....please do
