It often does not happen that way in the real world.
Not so good when you have multiple problems. You then need to prioritise.
So it’s a little different when you’re sitting at your desk pointing out what should have been done verses actually being in an aircraft faced with multiple problems.
Easy to comment in hindsight.
Well said Capt Fathom,
From an Engineers opinion, this is where the pilots earn their money (it's not enough!).
It's all well and good blaming the crew, but how would those criticising the crew react if faced with a similar situation ?
I for one will wait for the official report before pointing the finger !
