No sorry ears wrong person. Ex SH and CFS then airlines. Yet to meet a fellow SH pilot in ops or training who doesn't agree that the cause here is extremely unlikely to be anything other than pilot error, that includes a member of the board. There will always be those who see otherwise of course thats life but arguing semantics and the finer points of manuals and the Sheriffs opinion cannot excuse what happened. The board were constrained in what they could say or report, to say that one of the pilots 'made an error of judgement' is as far as they could go in condemnation, the other pilot could be sleeping it would seem. The two senior officers were free to say what the board couldn't. I don't think that one can reasonably clear the pilots of culpability, you can argue all sorts of possibilities and circumstances but they are tenuous at best. To demand absolution for the pilots because of no absolute proof will no longer work. If it waddles like a duck and quacks like a duck it probably is a duck. In this case there is no proof of any problem with the aircraft or nav sysytems and if there were they should'nt have beeen where they were. They were responsible for the safety of the aircraft and those aboard it and they failed in that duty.
