EU to dictate regulations even with a Hard Brexit

...at the end of the day the EU will be dictating regulations to the UK whether they want it or not.

The only way the UK can truly be free is to trash half of its exports.

XKR with a nice aero package...



Maybe they should add ejector seats to cars...

Like Bentley?

Change of subject alert!

I thought we were talking aero engineering.

Bentley - overpriced VWs IMHO. Christ I hope they haven't installed any Bosch cheat ware...

Personally if I had the money for a new one I would get something like a F Pace instead. And for an older one, in the £30k area, an supercharged XK8.

It's world class, and British.

Like Bentley?

Good find.

Martin Baker are the goliath's of this very niche industry.

Oh that's right - it doesn't exist.

Well there you go, Russian seats or British seats. Let's see who they choose.

Tory Brexit DOOM™: UK on course for even deeper economic slowdown than expected

Who mentioned Brexit? You did. Honestly some people. And no they don't save thousands of lives. Hundreds? Eh no... 10 or 20.. maybe. Exaggeration and then some.

Of course the designs are perfect. Why would you design something to fail? Maintaining it is a different matter, which is something that was known to the manufacturer in this case.

Over 7500 lives saved you idiot.

You mentioned brexit you idiot!

Indeed who is this Martin Baker??!

Red Arrows pilot was not warned about ejector seat danger before death, says coroner

Bet you they tried to brush that under the carpet as quickly as possible.


See the problem with Brexit is skills are fleeing the UK. Brain drain is well under way.

The accident had nothing to do with Brexit.

Seats fail, and designs aren't perfect, but they have saved thousands of lives operating in extreme conditions.

Well that's a bit below the pale.

The French and Germans will buy our British ejector seats.

They will soon, thanks to Brexit that you voted for.

No they won't!

Brexit will be a success.

The French and Germans will buy our British ejector seats.

And probably our engines too ;-)

Sorry who is this Martin Baker GmbH you keep mentioning? They don't exist.

The re-armament of Luftwaffe will require lots of ejector seats....

So they'll choose German seats made by Martin Baker GmbH.

Owners of the company will be happy as Larry paying flat dividend rate of 25% in Germany instead of 38% in UK.

Sorry who is this Martin Baker GmbH you keep mentioning?

They don't exist.
