In this episode James and Grant have a guest host Adrian joining them to discuss an accident which was too similar to the previous episode on Air Fance 447. Some operators just didn't want to incorporate the lessons learnt from AF447, however we finish on another incident that had a positive outcome, indeed most operators had taken the lessons on board.

We discuss The International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and why it is more of a guide to aviation policy rather than policing aviation, IATA which is a group of aviation businesses involved in influencing aviation policy.
