Indeed, c-s, tuc rightly connects this Greek kangaroo court fiasco with the MOD one that has presided over the demise of UK Military Airworthiness for some 25 years. When the professionals are pushed aside, or merely choose to step aside, this is what happens. Worse still people die because the true causes of fatal air accidents are covered up by incompetence or malevolence and scapegoats blamed instead. All that will go on happening in UK Military Aviation unless and until Airworthiness Provision and Air Accident Investigation is wrested from the MOD and placed into the hands of an MAA and MAAIB, independent of the MOD and of each other. That has yet to happen.
Self Regulation Never Works and in Aviation it Kills!
