Aox...
You make some good points and to add the case of the AH fan club is losing credibility.
The problem is that the CPS/Police might take the approach that prosecution my not be in the public interest, compounded with the fact that the CPS/Police might think AH has suffered enough. Criminal law sometimes works that way, but oddly the Crown Court would probably be kinder to him, based on the fact it would be decided by a jury on the 'without reasonable doubt' basis.
However a civil case would be based on the 'balance of probabilities' in which I think AH would be slautered financially.
The fact it that AH may have claimed he felt ill before, as someone stated, knowning that you were about to die, but perhaps it was an untruthfull statement to cover himself, in the same way AH claimed the entry was at 500ft, not that he can remember and evidence suggests otherwise. Also a bit odd that previous displays were reviewed on the Hunter, yet not the JP incident at Southport.
Finally, in respect of misreadining of instruments, the report states Class One Medical, but no references to restrictions in respect of corrective vision, as possibly, it is unlikely at the age of 51, corrective vision might be an issue, as it was in a Grob 115/Glider mid air acccident, which stated from memory that while there was a restriction in repect of corrective vision in respect of P1, yet glasses/or contacts were recovered from the accident. Did AH require glases, was he wearing them?
