re flight

but thats always been the case ,if you get the right people you can make things happen no matter what ...when the crash happened in 2000 lots of people were saying that it was the end and that the aircraft should be retired from service straight away and if the right people had listened to them things would have stopped in 2000.
But at the time we had people like jim o'sullivan in charge of things and he was the right man in the right place and was able to make things happen .
If you have enough people who say it cant be done every body will belive them after a while and so you find a situation like we have today where everybody thinks it cant be done without 100s of millions .......its like that with this screen thing ,somebody has said its bloody dangerous and sombody else has belived them without asking anybody else .
