At the time of the accident, the Chinook HC2 fleet were suffering numerous spurious warnings in the cockpit. ZD576 also had a problematic history since its mid life update.

A simple yes or no will do to this question, but you will need to back your answer up with evidence:
Was there a spurious caption illuminated in the cockpit in the last 20 or so seconds of the flight that may have been a distraction?

From your reply, I take it that you agree then that the President of the BoI was correct to say that there was insufficient evidence to find human faillings. It was when it reached Air Rank level that the interpretation of the limited evidence differed. Which of the two (President of the BoI or Reviewing Officers) is the correct interpretation? Why so?

My best, as always.
