How would you provide a RTS on an ac with an ADC with no civil or military clearance?
As easy as granting an RTS to a known grossly unairworthy aircraft, because the Regulatory Authority, the Air Accident Investigator, and the Operator are
still one and the same, ie the MOD including its subsidiaries. How many avoidable accidents and needless deaths will it take before this corrupt and incestuous trio is broken up into three entirely separate bodies that are truly independent of each other?
Those who are most affected by this scandal are those military aviators who are now serving. They have a unique opportunity to express their concern directly to the MAA/MAAIB at the RAeS on 24/25th October. They alone are offered free entrance to the conference. What was planned as a rubber stamp approval of the MAA could turn out to be anything but if its customers upset this self congratulatory jamboree. It doesn't need deep arcane knowledge to do that, for it is neither the time nor the place for long expositions. A general outbreak of audience dissatisfaction would say much about who the true professionals are, those selling the snake oil or those who refuse to buy it.
Self Regulation Does Not Work and in Aviation it Kills!
