so let me get this right Gouli - you jail the pilot to dissuade future display organisers. If I may say so that sort of justice is more common in some foreign dictatorships than England.

I fully agree people who had not intended to watch the display were killed. I am not sure that makes the death any different in the eyes of the law or indeed many of us. however the decision on the display line was that of the organisers and the CAA (!!), not the pilot. The report states he was correctly positioned along the display line. Had he been displaying off line he would have committed an offense.

I am not getting into what should happen to the organisers - I have no expertise or knowledge there - but your arguments seem to shift blame if there is any to shift legally from the pilot.
