KOTA KINABALU: A question about the fairness of the Australian manufacturer's report on the 1976 ill-fated Sabah Air Nomad 9M-ATZ crash is raised by the family of former chief minister Tun Fuad Stephens.

The family are now seeking expert views on the recently declassified "Double Six" crash reports that included the report of the Government Aircraft Factory (GAF) investigating team that stated there was no evidence of aircraft defect in the mishap that killed Fuad and 10 other people, including three of his Cabinet ministers.
