Caramba, many thanks for kind words!

You go on to say
one wonders why the AAIB does not re-examine the evidence and its report.
One does indeed wonder. But they say they've conducted a thorough review, using a team of inspectors with expertise in aircraft performance, human factors, fast jet operations and display flying. And they've decided not to reopen their inquiry. But - and I believe this is significant - they will publish a supplement to the final report, with full details of the review they conducted. Could that be a face-saver for them?

Also - and I have no firm information on this - but I believe the supplement may not be available until near the end of the year. That could account for the Coroner's decision not to launch the Inquest proper until early 2020.
