So this manoeuvre was cleared by the DO, the original release to service, the operating authority, the permit to fly and taught to crews?
If so then there is nothing to worry about at all and I am surprised that the CAA are even looking at it.
If the aircraft and crew are cleared and capable why is the manoeuvre not more commonplace?
