Hebog - sure its possible there was an issue with the aircraft but when they (AAIB) state in the first release that there were no obvious abnormalities and the aircraft was responding to the control inputs of the pilot, if facts emerged to suggest otherwise you'd say wouldn't you?
You add the terms fault and intentional - which then become emotive - and actually the entirety of the issues will come at some point with the final report regardless of how many times or how long a can gets kicked down the road. But that isn't the point of the comment. It is already known with absolute clarity what was planned to be flown v actual, the controls and process that lead to these events. These already lead to items of discussion, regardless of the final reports ultimate conclusion for the cause of the accident.
Yet sadly debate is stopped because we have this over riding view to sit on hands and do nothing, see nothing and hear nothing until you get to that point. If we take a position that those engaged in aviation are essentially good and bright people it doesn't take too much a leap of faith to understand that if you now want to take issue with crowd lines at airshows or specifically at Shoreham there were alarms. There was a crash at Shoreham within the last 10 years, there was a crash of a similar type of aircraft, displaying only the month before at a different venue.
I don't believe the issue is with crowd lines and venues however. The issue is just to implement actual rules and regulations that currently exist and have people in oversight who add a sensible layer of control that one might call "the spirit of the regulation". Why does a man who can not and has not demonstrated he can at least roll his Hurricane given a DA on type, full stop? Why allow a 100ft floor to any part of a display when there are "not below 1000ft" , "not below 500ft" and " no over flight" boxing the entire venue?!
These are not sophisticated things to deal with, they just need competent and clear thinking individuals to draw the appropriate line. Yet in some corners you can't have that debate because people flare up and talk of blame and the media, lawsuits and other distractions to the issue.
