I concur with Fagin's Goat. Don't blame the kit for operator error (if that is what it was). Nav errors of a few hundred's of yards do not cause this sort of incident. Reminds me of a similar incident several years ago when a Lynx landed in Sicily (i think) ran out of fuel and had to call for a fuel tanker. He got really slated at the time, but IMHO he should have been given a pat on the back for having the Cohones to not press-on. Red faces, but got the aircraft back safely.
