Ziggy, we all know that the video would hit some raw nerves that are distressing for you.
That is unfortunate, but unavoidable, and we all feel for you.
However, as the old saying goes, every cloud has a silver lining.
As Gobbles has indicated, I think you should look at it another way.
The 6 man crew of MV Pride clearly showed how simple and easy it was to raise the aft section of the aircraft from a mere 44 metres depth and recover the boxes.
By implication, they have also demonstrated that the recovery of the rest of the aircraft would be a doddle. The whole aircraft should have been raised, since there is still the issue of the "life raft", among many others.
The real point here, is that Dolan's reasons for not doing the recovery years ago have been "blown out of the water" so to speak.
Personally, I think that Hef, Zeno and DaveF should summons all 6 crew members to Canberra, to explain to the Senators, in a public Committee Hearing (in the Hansard) exactly how it was done, in detail, (with all the diver video), and how easy and safe it was to do.
Then they should do a thorough dismemberment of Dolan's previous testimony to the Committe on this matter, publicly, "on the record", in Hansard, and take whatever action is possible.
