Talking Reducing Hawk Weight Limits?

After recent incidents are they considering lowering the aircrew weight limit for the T1A? or visa versa increasing tire strength?

I think they may need to introduce a tooth size limit.

I feel that they should widen all the runways for those less able aviators! Maybe the pilot should've gone to Canada where the rwys are enormous?!

Apparently they thought about it but the thousands of miles between said aviator and the European food bank was deemed unacceptable.
