I expect we’ll eventually get to read about Mr 320ECAM in a crash comic. Unless you’ve been there, and you very obviously haven’t, you can keep your comments to yourself.

PTSD is very real, and following on from a major aviation event, is a likely outcome. We can be as capable as we like in flight, but once we get back on the ground, and away from the aircraft, pilots are as likely to have issues as anyone else. Perhaps more so, as they are less likely to say anything because of our fear of medical involvement.

This was a nasty event, that was well handled. It does not need to be compared to any other QF event, in an attempt to devalue it.
