No one takes rap over Concorde death plunge.
(From Western Daily Press)
The tragic last moments of pensioner Horace Livall's life were shown to an inquest jury yesterday.
The 10 men and women sitting at Kings Weston House, Bristol, watched distant CCTV footage of the disabled 71-year-old stepping back on the gantry of the Concorde museum at Filton Airfield, before plunging 30ft to the tarmac.
Former milkman Mr Livall, of Southmead, Bristol, was about to take a photo of his daughter Julie Nash and son-in-law Mark when he fell to his death on September 24, 2004.
A temporary walkway, made of bolted down, sturdy wood, had been in place to bridge a two-and-a-half foot gap from the metal visitors' gantry to the middle entrance of the supersonic plane.
The inquest previously heard there was also a gap in the handrails from the gantry to the fuselage, while a permanent extension was still to be built.
Claim and counter claim was voiced yesterday as to who should have been responsible for the health and safety assessment that was never carried out before the attraction opened in August that year.
