Thank you Airsound

I'm not a FJ pilot, but I'm a scientist, and I look at things based on evidence and probability. The thing I have most difficulty with here is that I am being asked to believe that all of these things went wrong in 20 seconds or so, caused by an effect no one can fully explain, or indeed prove happened, that 'came on' at exactly the wrong time, when there was no evidence of it ever happening in the individual before, or at any time before the tragic manoeuvre in this flight. That's a very unlucky lining up of holes in a lot of cheese. My antennae are twitching. Because the flying in the accident manoeuvre could also be explained by the actions of an inexperienced pilot on type, who simply got it wrong?

Sorry, that's the scientist in me kicking in. When I hear the clip clop of hooves on the road, I think horses, not zebras.
