I too agree with the report. I have to read it in a dispassionate manner because I am involved in examining the ramifications for basic engineering training but would suggest that the ethos on Nimrod Line Squadron in the early 70s is something which, thirty years on, cannot be gauged.

However, I was there, and believe me when I say that I wouldn't trust my life in an aircraft I had suspicions about.
