Caz,
You accuse ME of selective reading, I asked JP and your good self to answer one simple question in response to a statement JP had made with regards the weather conditions viewed from the flight deck.......and it is a follows..........
"Do you actually KNOW this is what the crew saw in front of them" and "could you swear on a bible, bet your last dollar etc etc that your version is ACTUALLY what the two pilots saw?"
I would suggest you can only answer this one way........NO, because the only people who know what the view out of the cockpit windows are no longer with us. If you re read my post you will see that my main thrust is that far too much supposition has been made, and whilst you and JP are PROBABLY right you are NOT CERTAINLY right which makes the verdict in this case wrong, IMHO.
