Telegraph Letter

CB : Letter would have been more impressive if it was from a 'coal face' instructor getting the boot.
As is was it is just another layer of very thick wallpaper going over the great chasm of cover ups.

I am intrigued to find out that the new winches 'will increase launch rate'; in my day that was limited by the gliders optimum climb rate (loading), but mainly by getting the cable back to the launch point. I fail to see how the new winches will make up for a 'reduced' operation or where all the 'jolley' staff will come from not to mention their experience levels. The letter is based upon 'opinion' not the hard facts of the case.
