With the exception of those of you that have offered reasoned (and reasonable) posts here, I have but one thing to say. Kirsty is a professional and highly skilled pilot. It is none of our business why she came to the brave and correct decision that things weren't right. This is not combat ops and her decision has no bearing whatsoever on her commitment as an operational pilot. How dare you all bring your uninformed, malicious speculation into public? A named, serving officer being maligned on PPRuNe. Disgraceful
Kirsty, well done for two years of excellent display flying and goodluck for the future. I hope your return to flying is swift and successful. And to the rest of the Team, for what it's worth, you have my support.
Mach Two.

It would appear to me that Kirsty is far more professional than some of the muppets posting here.
That lady has more courage, dignity, ability and honour than any of you
Thank you, M2, OmegaV6 and Fantom (and a few others). My post in the previous thread was deleted, but along almost similar lines. Those that are serving should know better. Those of us that are not, have no say in this. Who does that leave that post such vitriol?
I add my congratulations to Flt Lt Stewart.
If any of you are in any doubt about what you are doing here, look at Tourist's excellent observation:
It never ceases to amaze me how some Crabs will turn on their own brothers and sisters.
Jesus guys, you are supposed to defend each other to the death, especially in public!

I don’t think it should be pulled, I think it should be left open to let the cowards here delete their posts in shame or let the honourable people here congratulate Kirsty on what she deserves and in memory of two people that lost their lives bringing joy and pleasure to thousands

FWIW, an outsider's opinion.
If, as reported, Flt Lt Stewart felt unable to continue then surely she should be respected for having the courage to say so instead of carrying on regardless and potentially putting herself and others at risk?
It's not the first time someone has asked to leave the team. There is at least one pilot (with previous display experience) who was posted to the Red Arrows (as Leader) and asked to leave during pre-season training because he realised that it wasn't for him. He went on to achieve extremely high rank.
