...and the lives of our Members of Parliament who could be subject to terrorist suicide attack by helicopter now the weakness in security defences has been exposed.
That's just the sort of uninformed alarmist nonsense that distracts from sensible discussion on an aviation website.
Route H4 of the London Helicopter Routes follows the Thames through central London and passes immediately adjacent to the Houses of Parliament.
Charts of the routes are readily available on the internet and elsewhere.
Helicopter flights over London are widely advertised, usually accompanied by promotional pictures of the famous buildings which will be seen.
Do you really believe that, if suicidal terrorists wished to attack the HoP from the air, they didn't know before this tragic accident that the helicopter routes exist - or would care in the slightest whether there is a legally approved route to their final destination?
