I agree. Once again, very little bang for an enormous amount of tax-payer funded buck. Like most of their reports, it's minimalist in the areas you want to learn about and exhaustive in areas of limited or no relevance. It's hard to see why endless pages detailing which parts of the aircraft apparently broke off first as it sailed past Vne will help flight safety... I particularly enjoyed the insightful discovery that pilot and pax weren't unconscious before climbing into the aircraft. I learnt a lot from that. In addition to monitoring my CO indicator, I'm going to be ensuring I'm fully conscious before every flight now. And obviously not operating illegally!
