Internal memo on fatal software flaw in Chinook published
Computer Weekly has published a 140-page memo which suggests that the British Ministry of Defense had covered up a fatal flaw found in the FADEC system of its Chinook helicopters 15 years ago.
The internal letter was written on the same day a Chinook helicopter crashed on the Mull of Kintyre and killed all 29 on board.
For many years, the RAF had maintained that the crash was due to negligence by the pilots but evidence have suggested that problems with the aircraft might have lead to the crash.
