Grenville - I can't understand what you are saying

Even if it is a Hungarian machine, under ICAO (in theory) it should meet a minimum standard. I'm prepared to believe the Hungarians would ba s shocked as we are about the state this machine was in, but it was all drawn to the attention of the UK CAA and ignored. The premise behind ICAO/EASA or whatever is that there should be an acceptable minimum anywhere you go. In theory

PS - further to my previous post, for the sake of accuracy, there were 5 people in it, and it was also running with unidentified oil. The photos I mentioned were pulled in by the AAIB.
