Strangely I have taken three black Cabs in London and all three discussed the Helicopter crash.
All three commented on inadequate lighting on the Cranes so that seems to be the sentiment with non aviation people in London.
I took an extra interest in the Skyline and noted some of the Cranes fitted above the skyscrapers.
As an example one had a lower arm which displayed a Red Light on the lower arm but NO light at all on the much higher other arm?
Missing? Broken?u
Some of these high building Cranes had no illumination whatsoever some partial a few good illumination!
What a mess!!! Somehow I do not think these cranes meet regulations and that is a serious observation!!! and the observations at dusk!
Maybe the media should examine some of these structures and make their own judgement??? as to me many do not appear to meet the safety standards!
