The authors, yes, but that leaves the rest of everybody not sure.

“Probable Cause”.

You are “probably” correct, though you leave no room for questions. CAB is not a sacred source of truth.

Is it possible the Boost unit was malfunctioning to any extent pre take off?
Absolutely. The squawk sheet on N137US’ aileron system prior to boost unit replacement was extensive.

Could the problem have extended beyond simple boost replacement? Be careful, now you need to involve NWA maintenance in your “irrefutable”.

Crimped sheaves? Cracked connectors? Badly bled hydraulics? Leaky cylinder? Incorrect fluid? The list is legion.

My questions of the report are no more insulting to CAB than your irreverent demand that you know all?

With respect.
