An issue which unfortunately has been done to death. Maybe if people reviewed previous posts in this thread, they would find that practically any input they have on the fuel situation has been said before on 10 previous occasions.
It is becoming tedious in the extreme reading the same comments over and over (and over) again! It reminds me of why I seldom PPRuNe these days.
A myriad of other issues to discuss without repetition:
Fatigue.
Windshear.
Doghouse design
Shock and temporary incapacitation
Weather
Weather Radar
Cabin safety
Airport safety
ATC
Search and Rescue
CRM
Training
Autopilot and autothrottle performance.
etc.etc.etc
Wouldn't it be great if people bothered to read the accident report and previous posts before becoming instant experts (and greater experts than the AAIB and their Spanish oppos) on god the universe and everything including fuel!
Edited to say that I am almost certain that somewhere in the next few posts we will be back on the fuel issue with a rewrite of a previous post.
Go on...make my day punks.
