The more this discussion considers 'cause' and 'blame' the less opportunity there is to learn.
The emotion of death distracts. Consider a different outcome, just a few feet one way or the other, or higher, then the tabloid headlines would be 'hero remains in aircraft to avoid the road', …
This discussion would be reframed; luck, good judgement, etc.
We overlook the effects and power of outcome bias and frame of reference for the event - how
we wish to see it opposed to the actors viewpoint within the event, at that time.
Either side of a fatal event or not there is opportunity to learn; we must take this opportunity. Avoid 'human error' (cause, blame), and look for the how and what to learn.
