Justice

Yes, arrest on "suspicion of manslaughter by gross negligence" is a long ways from a conviction, but I found it interesting that jumpy house operators are swiftly charged in a case like this, while no one has been charged in the much more serious and clear-cut Shoreham case.

Being American, I know little of the English legal system, other than the comical wigs, but I have some grasp of the concept of justice. These jumpy house operators are being held to a higher standard than display pilots, which I think is exactly the opposite of what should be happening.
