First thing to be said is that I'm not going to start any campaigns, are you?
Start no, be part of yes. If you wish to you can read earlier threads that:-
Campaigned to get ESF fitted to Hercules:

Campaigned to get Nimrod airworthiness ensured:
http://www.pprune.org/military-aircr...ndolences.html
Campaigned to get an independent MAA and MAAIB established:
http://www.pprune.org/military-aircr...al-merged.html
Campaigned to get Mull finding scrapped:
http://www.pprune.org/military-aircr...-3-merged.html
I would point out that these threads included many views and many aims, I only quote them as I and others who are like minded posted on them with the intentions noted. There are many other threads, like this one, that have also served to air similar views.
In the airworthiness related fatal accidents featured in this Forum alone 62 people have died, 29 of them on Mull. The airworthiness shortcomings reflect on the UK Military Airworthiness Authority, aka the MOD. The subsequent BoIs were conducted by the RAF and other than in the case of Nimrod scarcely mentioned airworthiness problems, let alone any MOD culpability.
You want facts? Read the Haddon-Cave and Lord Philip Reports. Better still read the posts by tucumseh in the above threads.
Or if you wish you might try sticking your fingers in your ears, and shout "La,La,La! I'm not listening!" It works well for many!
