No doubt you missed the previous post to which this response was submitted.
Whether you agree or disagree, the investigation was extremely comprehensive and covered all the relevant findings.
Regarding a number of points relating to the titanium strip being a convenient finding, this is totally incorrect. That strip was clearly the prime cause. Without that the tyre would not have disintegrated as it did. Yes there had been a number of previous tyre failures on t/o but the mass of the rubber that was released was larger and that as we now know was the cause of the damage to the wing underside resulting in the massive fuel loss.
