I have seen a lot of armchair experts on here before but I think this one takes the cookie.

We know absolutely nothing about what went on in the kitchen (cockpit). In contrast to a steep spiral at 230 kts, thrust idle, flaps 5, speed brake out night IMC (as some may imagine).. it could just as well have been smooth sailing at 180 kts, flaps 5, vertical speed at 1000 fpm draging it in with thrust on a moon bright night in obstacle protected airspace.

As for reporting it... CHIRPing whatever that entails... give me a break. Disconnect and enjoy the fun of flying.
