In the end, it doesn’t really matter what anyone thinks regarding how pilots “should” react in a given situation; what matters is how they DID react; and why. If we don’t get to the bottom of that, it’ll happen again; I think we can all think of some well-known examples.
Similar incidents have affected experienced crews at most major airlines in the recent past, so maybe we need to re-evaluate our assumptions. We’d all like to think we could handle this but we’ve all also made stupid mistakes due to distraction, tiredness and so on.
Just some thoughts !
