Me too. Being a Station Flight Safety Officer was very interesting. My first day on the job I had to reopen a Hurricane Cat 5 investigation, we had the Lockerbie jet in the Farnborough hanger on our course (yes, the course came after I'd started the job), I ran a Cat 3 (almost a Cat 5) investigation on base, including doing the audio transcript, plus one got accident reports from all over the globe. Add to that everything one tried to reduce the accident risk without affecting operations; publicity, training, reviewing publications, inspections, etc. I produced a monthly simulator incidents newsletter to try to pick out common errors on sim rides which were applicable to the jet (the artificialities of the sim meant not all were). This got adopted fleet-wide.I have always been fascinated by Air Accident Investigation.
Plus, I kept flying!
