Beware

Every ‘aid’ to assist decision making is welcome but -
On one hand we bemoan the increasing automation of flying and the consequential degrading of flying skills - on the other hand we stress the importance of ‘captaincy’.
However we all know that companies only like demonstrations of ‘captaincy’ when it does not affect the schedule or bottoms line.
The crew had ample indications that this flight should have stopped way before they ‘manfully’ kept it on the deck. Unexpected requirement for full opposite pedal FFS!
Hums appears great and is as good as the engineer interpreting the data - by all means make the data less ambiguous but please let us not forget the real failing here and where any resources should be targetted.
