The AIIB didn't find the direct cause of the apparent brake failure in the L39 crash - the investigators were unable to reproduce the problem - but the comments about certain aspects were as critical (restrained AAIB style) as I've ever seen in an AAIB Report.

I agree it's entirely wrong for the media to use either incident to suggest Duxford isn't safe. There's no basis for such criticism in the L39 Report.

If anyone's interested, click the link is below. It's worth reading.
