Hi Barry,

Nice write up my friend. Bring's back a few memories :-)

I know a number of years ago just prior to the Chinook crash in Scotland that Killed all SAS, MI5/6 and Ulster Constabulary Top Brass and crew that the RAF Pilots refused to fly the latest versions due to a lot of instability etc in the new engines etc. It took some time but it's now been agreed by the Crash investigators and the Government to remove ALL blame from the Flight Crew. It's now been classed as Mechanical Error (unknown)!!

The reason of argument was that in a crash of this kind the transponder code would remain the same. It was known ALL along that the first two digits had been changed (prior to the accident) to 77.

Regards,

James (CONman) Anderson
