Well said
Frank!
I think you made a very persuasive comment in the following;
When military officers leave "field rank" their promotions are at the behest of the government via their peers. It's then they lose objectivity and man management skills and become part of the "punch and judy show". They should be ignored as having any sensible input into any civilian problems. (Including looking for sunken aircraft).
If I may be permitted a fairly blunt observation; Could someone tell me just WTF Angus Houston would know about
Civil Aviation?
