I agree with you, but as I am sure you are aware, although the Moderators detest speculation from 'timewasters' et al, if that speculation 'states' that the crew were heroic and averted a disaster, it is accepted.

I personally doubt it was aircrew error, but at the same time, I doubt very much whether the flight crew had much input to the outcome. People on these forums (the professionals), decry newspapers for writing the usual "fought heroically with the controls, narrowly avoiding a nunnery/school/orphanage" whenever there is an incident, but then sit back and do it themselves on this forum!

Some of the 'professionals' who post on here speculate as much as the media
