D Flying/Flt Test Div etc
Whilst not wishing to say 'I told you so', this breakdown in oversight and assurance was highlighted as a risk when D Flying was subsumed into the MAA and effectively broken up.
Many a meeting were held with the Ops 2* and the 3* Head and also rigorously documented, but the MAA hierarchy did not believe it to be an issue.
Had D Fg still been in existence, would the accident have happened? One cannot say for sure. However, I strongly believe the numerous swiss cheese holes would not have had the ability to line up/been there in the first place.
Crawling back to a happier place as this break up of Flt Test oversight back in 2011/12 got me going then and appears to have done it again...
