TTN,
I am sure someone can put up a link to the report on the TriStar accident? Suffice to say, it ranks as a totally unprofessional co$kup. Fortunately, the tremendous capabilities of the aircraft saved the day. However, this incident soured the whole future of the aircraft with elements of the RAF, and gave ammunition to those, particularly at Brize Norton, who would seek to harm its interests. Sadly.
