THERE ARE NO WINNERS
There I'm afraid we part company, because every airworthiness related military air accident that isn't tagged as such by the SI
is another victory for the Star Chamber, whose principal purpose is to protect its members, in this case those who were directly responsible for the destruction of military airworthiness provision and those who were directly involved in covering that up.
The losers of course are everyone else, those who died in these avoidable accidents, their loved ones condemned to a lifetime of grief, those yet to die and those yet to grieve, those left behind to deal with this dysfunction, and the great unwashed British Public (self included) that go on paying for this needless waste of resource.
Someone somewhere has to stand up and say enough is enough, and this has got to stop, now! The solution has been laid down on this forum for years now, and it is simple enough. Remove the MAA and the MAAIB from the MOD and from each other. Head both up with civvie DGs, man with detached Service Personnel, and scour the earth for those who were around when this stuff worked and know how to make it work again. That means seeing Haddon Cave's Report for the sham that it was; ignoring evidence of illegal orders and actions in what it disingenuously called "A Golden Period of Airworthiness". Goebbels, eat your heart out!
