[QUOTE=fdr;11388438]The "28K hours" is the aircrafts "experience"... crew is unstated in the preliminary report issued per Annex 13
Not sure what you mean by this.
My statement was that between them the pilots had over 28,000 logged flying hours. I wasnt refering to any information in the report.
For 2 pilots, both captains, to have made such stupid and elmentary errors and then not recognise the results of their actions and cause a perfectly servicable aircraft to crash is unforgivable.
Enough of people saying they were tired, or fatigued or stressed, flying the bloody plane was their job and between them they screwed up.
They got too complacement relying on automation
forgot to listen to, and feel what the aircraft was doing
forgot to check what the instruments were telling them
forgot to wonder what lever did I actually move before, when selecting full flaps for the second time.
Had basically become bad system managers
and had forgotten how to fly a plane. ANC.
