Oxford Coroner finds Sea Knight crash cause mechanical

Mr. Andrew Walker, assistant deputy coroner for Oxfordshire, has endorsed the 3 Commando Brigade BOI findings of mechanical failure, contrary to that of the US and British "defence chiefs" who found against the pilots. Ring any bells? At least they were only stuffed with pilot error rather than gross negligence, but yet another injustice done.

Dare I ask what the nature of the mechanical failure was, if anyone is in the know?

Previous accident where there was a differential air speed hold actuator failure and the result can be found here, albeit with a different helo type (civilian Chinook) but still a tandem.
