Anti Skid On. The media gave a fair run to both sides. For comments on the Professor's evidence have a scroll through the other Silk Air posts in Rumours and News. No point in repeating them here. The Prof was a nice old chap who was contracted(?) by Silk Air to say the things they wanted him to say.
I must say though, that practically all of his perceived wisdom was actually very effective red herrings. For instance, have you ever heard of a "progressive electrical failure" theory in an almost new 737?
The Professors technique was to throw the old hoary term of "Anything is possible" into the evidence.
When pressed for an explanation of why the Silk Air 737 went in, the Prof replied that the pilot probably rushed to conclusions and went into a dive forgetting that he should close the thrust levers and extend the speed brakes.
Then when asked why full power all the way in the dive, he replied that high power will raise the nose. Half truths but very effective to a judge that knows zilch about aeroplanes.
But yes - the media reported the Professors words quite accurately.
