When I re-energised this Thread, on the strength of the Telegraph news item, one of my selected quotes from the Coroner was “I am also going to be looking at cultural issues as well. We are going to have a lot of evidence about culture.” I thought that statement would initiate some debate. I was wrong, though, as it didn't.
Maybe I'm uniquely paranoid about the implications of influential professional civilians delving into military life. I think that goes a bit wider than airworthiness and BoI policy/habits/traditions.
