Apologies but sources down here have suggested that they have all ready been removed from the flight...

However, I totally agree with you reference the BOI and the Mull......if the FAA are not very very careful we will be seeing another "Chinook (Lynx) hitting back" thread

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Si Clik, not commenting on this topis at all but the one about removal from post before a BOI has delivered its findings.

In the light blue arena several aircrew, much like civpol, are grounded and sent on gardening leave pending the results of enquiries. In many cases it is probably irresponsible not to take such precautionary measures.

The same happens in many other walks of like too especially in fraud allegations. Why should god's gifts to aviation be treated any differently? (And I mean any pilot and not the ones featuring in this thread.)

Your other point is valid however, don't hang the b*st*rd until found guilty.

There may be some chinese whispers going on here.
Have the crew/pilot been sacked - highly unlikely. Closer to the truth will be they've
1. Been re-appointed (and not necessarily because of the accident) to new jobs in line with normal appointing cycles.
2. Heard a rumble that one/some of the crew had resigned anyway, before all this happened so would be off to gardening/resettlement stuff!

VVHA

Can't see your chinook style thread appearing at a rapid rate. At the mo it appears that someone screwed up, unless the BOI can find a technical prob, so the defence could be pretty weak!
