Tourist,


Did you feel that things needed to change after Ramstein, or was that an over reaction by 'pant-wetters' also?


Your comment about there having to be a sufficient body-count before any change is effected is the highest order of cynicism.


And while no one needs you to point out to them that death is a fact of life, not mitigating against it when a threat has been identified and the opportunity presents itself to do so is surely the very definition of stupidity.


No one is expecting or even striving for 'perfect safety' by limiting the Reds' display at Farnborough, they are just trying to reduce the risk of anyone dying pointlessly.
