hank you. That is common sense. It is frustrating to me that so many people feel they have to deliver a verdict on the actions of a flight crew on the sparcest of information. I am happy to await the deliberations of the CAA and AAIB which will be used as a basis for future reaction by the industry. The shoot from the hip mouthing off delivered by the FAA is plain incompetent and ill considered, but then they want all the world to play by twin engined rules for obvious reasons.
Now let's be fair. You castigated all the people other than pilots who shoot from the hip, mouth off without the facts and now you castigate the FAA for the same thing.
Now maybe you have a valid point or two among your other posts, you seem to express yourself well. But just because a newspaper quoted hearsay from unattributed FAA folks who obviously don't have the grade level to speak for the FAA, you castigate the whole organization.
That certainly is not anymore correct than castigating the whole B747 pilot community because of all the differing opinions expressed on this forum.
