There are of course others who are less ignorant attempting to maliciously misinform the press or perhaps have they some other personal axe to grind.
Take this one:
Would these 'CIR rated pilots' happen to fly a latest spec uncertified experimental home built aircraft? To attempt to imply that 'airline and other CIR rated pilots' (which many AF pilots are) are not welcome is just downright misleading.
This is tragic enough to the families and all involved and out hearts should go out to them without all of this BS.
CTR,
Yes that is exactly what happened as a knee jerk reaction to the previous accident. Maybe you do not get the irony of it all. But for the avoidance of doubt, my previous statement was and still is 100% accurate and not misleading at all.
As for feeding the media......maybe we all should quite prune now. The media misquote all the time, so anything they pick up here is more or less likely to be fact and then misrepresented.
I am sorry you are so upset by the facts.
