She knew the risks and requirements of her new role when she joined “The Firm” and having chosen to ignore them is now paying the price. Is it really so difficult to just keep your top on outside? And as for being “in private” I suspect there were any number of flunkeys and so-called security people (though fat lot of good they seem to be) who she was quite happy to let catch an eyefull. Not what we are entitled to expect from a future queen, IMHO. What happened to good old fashioned dignity and decorum and keeping things private for your husband?

I think JT442 is right, and the requirement envisages a worse case scenario where all the exits on one side of the fuselage are unusable after an accident.

Total bloody idiot. Too many judges just seem to regard it all as some academic debate, with no sense whatsoever of what crime means in the real world.
