I don’t know about anyone else but I found that very difficult to read. Hit the return key now and again.
after all, the conclusions of the Philip inquiry were rather open.
Lord Phillip’s job wasn’t to establish what happened. When it came to the important thing, the aircraft not being airworthy, he fingered ACAS fairly and squarely. MoD rolled over.
I can’t even begin to argue for or against the rest of what you say although one thing springs to mind. When you discuss what MALM Forbes was doing, do you know if it was he who carried out the checks of the debris screens (every 5 mins) and fuel computer connectors (every 15 mins)?
and in any case the STANS back then would not/should not have been relied upon
Nor, confirmed by Phillip, the entire aircraft! And that’s what makes all your speculation a bit academic. The previous threads never sought to establish what happened, only to uncover sufficient evidence to clear the pilots. Job done. With this new thread are you inviting speculation as to what happened?
