safety pin had been incorrectly inserted or that the firing handle was in an unsafe position. One senior aircraftman who was working that day gave evidence at the inquest stating that he had confirmed the firing handle safety pin was in position, which meant it was supposed to be safe according to his training.

Stewart said the firing handle had accidentally been moved to the wrong position during flight by her seat straps, and that she believed the handle being in the wrong position prevented full insertion of the safety pin.

would not be. This means that the yellow and black strap that sits between the pilots legs (the SFH) can be pulled upwards sharply and the seat will deploy. The SFH can also be pushed accidentally into a downward position, so that any amount of downward pressure upon it will allow the ejection to activate.

The Service Inquiry into the accident found that the seat firing handle (SFH) safety pin, had been displaced on an earlier flight (4 November 2011) and re-inserted incorrectly so as to appear that it was in the safe position, especially if viewed vertically from above, which is the normal stance when

According to Martin-Baker's solicitors (Clyde &Co) they were advised to plead guilty to 'avoid upsetting MoD'. As part of the guilty plea, Martin-Baker agreed to pay court costs amounting to over £550,000 but refuted the prosecution's allegation that what happened was "not an isolated incident".

A pre-inquest hearing was held in August 2013, where the coroner heard that Flight Lieutenant Kirsty Stewart, a fellow pilot on the Red Arrows, had a related incident working as an instructor at RAF Valley. After landing following a training flight, Stewart noticed she had failed to fully insert the

The coroner was critical of Martin-Baker, who knew about how the bolt that retained the drogue parachute was not to be over-tightened as far back as January 1990. Martin-Baker had informed some operators of the Mk10B1 seat (including many military air forces worldwide) not to over-tighten the bolt,

The inquest also heard how a squadron leader who had returned to the Red Arrows after being away for four years was surprised by the lack of engineers for the squadron, the operational tempo (especially given the age of the aircraft) and the relative inexperience of the engineers, some of whom were

The inquest heard about the incident and the events leading up to it, including how Cunningham had taken Night Nurse, a brand of cold relief, as an oral suspension the night before and how moments before crewing-in, he accepted a 49-second call on his mobile phone from an estate agent about a house

Martin-Baker have since designed a small metal plate to go over the SFH which prevents accidental firing. This had been proposed a number of times but always rejected by MoD. Additionally they have created a new bolt that cannot be over-tightened and will hold the main parachute in place until the

The coroner described the safety pin of the ejection seat's firing handle as "entirely useless". Seven personnel had nineteen opportunities to check the position of the firing handle between its final flight on 4 November and the incident, and none of them, including Cunningham, had determined the

One of the last things that a pilot does when crewing-in before take-off, is to remove the safety pin(s) so that the seat is "live". The safety pin on the seat could also be mis-aligned, which when viewed from a normal vertical downward angle, means that it looks to be in the 'safe' position, but

Before crewing-in, Cunningham and some of the other aircrew were waiting for the engineering paperwork to be completed and it was stated that Cunningham appeared "in good spirits", and that he was "buzzing with excitement at flying to RAF Valley and an overnight stay with four friends".
