I don't have any problem with the following comment:

I have stated that I believe that the blame should be shared between everybody involved, Company, CAA and the crew. To take the crew out of the loop gives a completely wrong interpretation of the events of that day.
I do think the airline created a culture that allowed descent criteria to be ignored not just on the flight which crashed but probably on earlier ones aswell.

I have always since the crash concluded for myself that lack of line of sight VHF contact was a glaring clue to the pilots that something was not right.
