John Purdey,
Thank you for confirming my interpretation of your view.
I would now like ask how you can know, beyond any doubt whatsoever, what the pilots could see at the point of waypoint change?
All we know is that they could not see the lighthouse. Are you saying that, and only that, is enough to eliminate any doubt whatsoever in your mind?
That, to me, is beginning to look like a high degree of prejudice.
E.g. How do you know that they couldn't see up the coast for some miles?
