No argument here.fins wake:These are all excellent points.
Good post, Stephen.
Those agencies can't agree among themselves. For years TDI could't even agree among itself: they trained on Inspiration just about anywhere but here in the US, an American agency ... . Same for the manufacturers, they can't agree on a standard of testing AND public access to the data.fins wake:Perhaps IANTD, TDI, IART, ANDI and RAB could agree on the above with the big RB manufacturers? It's in everybody's interest to avoid erroneous speculation if the truth can be had.
So I think that good, accurate, and accessable reports will remain wishfull thinking.
Also remember, you would need the responding and investigating agencies to support such an endeavour, which is rather unlikely considering the number of countries, municipalities and jurisdictions.
Finally you would have the families of victims' help, at least their okay to access data. Aside from their obvious grief and resulting desire not to have to deal with another entity they might well have solid reasons not to help out.
Especially in regards to diving past certification/experience, modifications etc., anything an insurance carrier may use to refuse payment.
