I see the Hunter and airshows as an easy target with few users, driven by a press, yes it is a tragedy people died and everyone from the pilot down, myself included, if they could right that wrong, they would.
BUT you do not get a knee jerk reaction as this elsewhere , refuse trucks are still in Scotland collecting rubbish, Ferries still sailing across the Channel from Zeebrugge, Airliners still flying over the Alps. True we learnt from these things, but sad as it is, financial implications rule the roost.
