Dean and AA62,
I had not long been with 3AEF, John Stapp finally retired as Boss about the same time, no coincidence I hope, when the Saint Athan fatal happened. The pilot had been guesting at Hullavington not long before.
I don't suppose any of his history came out in the BoI.
I also doubt whether any of this history was ever written in his reports.
If it had been reported, one would have hoped that he would not have been given such a senior flying supervisory role?
Lots of hidden Swiss cheese slices!
