Our local TV news has reported last night, on the inquest of a half informed review on the death at Scampton last year due to the seat firing unexpectedly. This report states that the Arrows were twenty maintenance crew short and that untrained staff were being used!!!!!! The seat fired for no reason????????????? Having fired and put the Pilot to where the parachute could deploy it failed to deploy, the crew member did not seperate from the seat and impacted the ground, with fatal results. Questions need not be asked because those in authority know why this incident happened. Money saved life lost!
What does this say about our current state of the armed forces in general???
This man died because of a lax attitude at all levels at Scampton.
I have no doubt this post will be gone by breakfast today
