Gunners and other Pongos take a rubber-hosing from the MAA

I've just read the latest Service Inquiry report on the recent Hermes 450 accident and there would seem some significant training deficiencies have been found in the Royal Arty's "pilots".

Read here... Page not found (the link works by the way!)

This has been a long time coming since the H450 that allegedly smashed into the Basrah Terminal Building, because the RA thought they would have a "plucky stab" at a circling approach they'd seen once and "it can't be that hard can it?".

Luckily no-one was hurt...
