Herald of Free Enterprise is constantly cited by MoD when discussing the need to re-introduce the concept of managing safety, so in that sense I believe it a very fair analogy. MoD safety management was run in a "shockingly unsafe manner from top to bottom", albeit with a few exceptions where some staff refused to commit offences. RAF Cranwell recommended that students read the report, but not too openly as at the time (1990s) it contradicted RAF policy.
