A fascinating book. The investigation into the crash of the French Concorde has so many parallels with the Mt Erebus saga in Antarctica. In fact, there was nothing new and the same investigation mistakes made. As for the French legal system, so much better than that which the pilots families suffered in New Zealand. But I don’t suppose anyone will believe me unless they look at the Chippindale accident report, and then the Royal Commission of Inquiry by his honour Peter Mahon. Then the appeal court and Privy Council. All rubbish and still to be corrected after 44 years. At least the French legal system got most of the corrections made but not the NZ and UK legal systems. Basically the NZ state committed a fraud on the families of the victims in order to limit the payouts to the maximum under the Warsaw Convention of NZ$42000. The NZ prime minister was involved in the conspiracy.
How wonderful. I could listen to Mr Bannister all day it’s fascinating stuff. I have a copy of his book
