Red Jet 4 Windows Smash

A PASSENGER on the Red Jet has told the County Press how its door slammed open and two windows smashed during a crossing to Southampton this morning (Wednesday).

Doesn't sound very good to me.

The Red Jet or the reporting? I'd wager the latter was worse!

Both but yes the reporting was pretty poor. I would have expected something better, for example from the master mariner that was onboard im sure he would have been able to give a pretty concise report.

I dot think the master mariner was reporting himself.

I thought it was Pretty standard for the County Press.

No sorry should have put that better, I was trying to say if the press wanted a more detailed report they could have interviewed him.
