Well, yes, of course it is sad that the aircraft is being scrapped, but the Cat driver remembering when he was a child and making engine and zoom noises and a play on words has to raise a smile. No?

[Eric Mc]

No.

What he was doing was actually quite stupid, in my eyes.

I liked the part where other pilots had also been taking off below the recommended speed and re training is taking place...
Right lads don't take off before your plane can fly.......

I don’t see the point of a video of someone reading a report.

Agreed.
I want to see it crash land.
THEN it would've been worth watching!

Really interesting listening to the report analysed by someone who knows what they are talking about.

It's a clever way of making a unique link more memorable. Instead of using a random alphnumeric string (e.g. youtube's video ID) you use a combination of dictionary words randomly assigned together into a short phrase.
