Helicopters

[BDunnell]

There have been several cases of reports by recognised authorities being flawed in the past and too quick to blame pilots, though they are very professional people much does depend on the evidence available.

Well, there have, but I was (and really should have qualified this) referring to the UK, where I'm struggling to think of a report that has subsequently been made out to be badly flawed.

What surprises me more about the whole thing is the amazing knee jerk reaction from the public.

I don't think there has been. Sections of the press and certain politicians tried to whip up a bit of outrage, but nothing more.
