FFF,
As part of the discussion, we have included all sorts of topics that pertain to this latest Crash on the North Sea.
Most have taken the view that limiting the discussion to exactly what might have caused the crash is part of the mindset that "traps" us in adequately responding to the various factors that come into play when these tragedies happen.
Most have embraced the concept of examining every facet of the crash, its causes, the environment within which it occurred and wish to have an open, wide ranging review of the Offshore Helicopter Industry and its policies, procedures, and regulations.
I submit we can not separate the crash from that review as it is part and parcel of why we need the review.
We have at hand a situation where a well maintained aircraft, operated by a well known professionally run business, overseen by the Oil Company and the Authority, using a very professional and well trained Crew.....flew into the Water after the Crew lost control.
There is a nexus there that links the crash to the discussion at hand.....don't you think?
