sensible debate has partly changed my view.

Since the start of this thread I have had plenty of time to consider my opinion on this subject.
I have been swayed in my opinion by the high regard this pilot is held by his colleagues who have seen and been able to judge his flying ability and experience at first hand. (no pun intended)
I would now be happy for me or my family to be flown in an aircraft under the charge of this pilot. I do however still have one concern and that is the prosthetic arm which failed in this situation. I would like the reassurance that this is fully inspected and certified to the same standard as any other mechanical part that is fitted to the aircraft.
I am happy to admit I was partly wrong in my earlier posts and offer my sincere apologies to this obviously highly experienced and respected pilot.
