The fact that the UK Military operates within a single legal system whilst being, in effect, the airline, the ATM provider and the Airport operator as well as the investigator and the regulator should make the task far easier.
Disagree, I'm afraid. It is that very unholy trinity of operator, investigator, and regulator that is at the very core of the problem. Would you fly with a civilian airline that investigated and regulated itself? Unless of course you subscribe to Liam Fox's endorsement of "honourable men"....
