For those of you who 'like' to assume that it is always the pilots' fault, a couple of brief extracts from the SMH story, previously linked above by Pseudonym...
He said the investigation into the cause of the crash was ongoing but mechanical problems were being looked at.
and:
"From what I understand [the pilot] did very well in advising and preparing the passengers for the impact and following the normal emergency procedures."
A bit too soon to be 'pointing the bone' methinks. Seems that congratulations to the pilot
may yet be well in order, and that we are all lucky that he survived and will be able to tell us what he faced in the hope that we may extract some valuable lessons from his experience.
A little more circumspection and tact may be appropriate in some posts...
