BBC saying Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha was on board but authorities don't know who else was involved.
Update: Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha was in the helicopter. Reuters reporting there were four other passengers but that hasn't been confirmed. Last edited by stevestrat; 28th October 2018 at 15:09.. |

How on Earth does any aircraft get past all the rules and regs to cause such a disaster?

I'm not sure, however that report does reference a CAA report perhaps it's in there.
https://www.gov.uk/aaib-reports?keyw...rence%5Bto%5D= more in here. It says how it happened but not why. Last edited by topman; 8th December 2018 at 06:53.. |
