PBL:
I believe I've read some of your work, and found it quite insightful. I personally believe that the process of investigation is made more meaningful by varied, conflicting and sometimes combative discussion. Any contribution which is based on provable fact and logic should be admissible, regardless of the source.
Much of the Turkish MD-83 thread centered on where the impact point actually was. I suspect that those who found this discussion pointless (including, it seems, some moderators) have never been involved in the investigation of an actual accident. Stuff that should be banal is sometimes unusually hard to figure out. That is the way of the world.I suspect it will remain so.
This is a good point which should be remembered. The answers are not always so easy as reading out the data from an FDR and shouting "Aha!". I have been through an experience where the various parties involved could not even agree on
what happened, much less
why, and as far as I know still haven't. It was quite frustrating, needless to say.
