Dont know if you were already aware of this report but found it whilst wondering the web whilst having a coffee this morning....

Whilst on the site check out the "Latest Videos" as well. A nice way to spend 5 minutes..

Hmmm, thanks Friar. Their findings are 15 - 20 years behind everyone else regarding aeroplanes and spectators - the evidence has been out there and available. Earlier on the day of the crash I was very surprised when an F18 came from the right and flew along the crowd line right over the spectators grandstand - fantastic spectacle but, as we know, highly inappropriate in the UK and Europe.

Having said that, the experience of the event is like nothing else because of the way it is set up. I will be going again in a few years - hope it hasn't changed too much by then.

~S~ Colin,

That information pretty much ties up with everything else we have heard and read since September. It's the often seen disaster scenario where by a long list of small errors add up to a big bugger !

Thanks.

Mick.

Mind you, the planes are coming plenty close enough when you're on the tank bank
