Flight Idle
Absolutely spot on.
But to be fair to maintainers throughout MoD and industry, if the powers that be stop funding MF765s (Unsatisfactory Feature Reports) altogether, then it is natural that an apathy will will set in because one never gets an answer. Time after time this system failure has been escalated up the Star ladder by the Inspector of Flight Safety; if they ever bothered to respond it is along the lines of "shoot the messenger". The same people succeed in hiding their failures because they dictate the scope of any investigation, thus judging their own case, which is why MoD only looks at the final act (the pilot or maintainer). How many BoI/SI reports have cited "Organisational Fault" as a factor? Nimrod XV230 came close (ACM Loader) but didn't use the words. The rules should require a positive statement; not an implication that just because they don't mention it everything is ok.
