MORE than 25,000 people have signed a petition demanding answers around the 1994 Chinook disaster as the families of the 29 dead accuse the Ministry of Defence (MoD) of a cover-up.

Cover up claim after 29 died in Chinook disaster

They were killed when an RAF Chinook ZD576 crashed on the Mull of Kintyre. The incident was blamed on pilot error before being overturned in 2011.

A BBC documentary last year, Chinook: Zulu Delta 576, revealed the files related to the tragedy had been sealed for 100 years.

In a petition, the family of the victims have urged for the release of all documents and called for a judge-led public inquiry.

The petition reads: "Twenty-nine people boarded Chinook ZD576 on 2 June 1994. All of them died.

"31 years later, we - their families - still have no answers.

"We have been denied truth, transparency and justice by the MoD.
