I have read this thread on and off and have to say that, although I do not have the knowledge which others on here possess, I'm delighted with the result. It is always far too easy and some would say convenient, to blame deceased pilots as they cannot present their own, first hand, version of events. I hope the families of the pilots receive a fulsome apology and also all the help they will need to come to terms with the years of distress which they have endured.
