Nige, I work with that Captain and whilst his decision may not have been as rushed in different circumstances, he was certainly not pi$$ed off. I suggest you talk to him again and get the facts right from the horses mouth before posting on here.
That said, it would seem that info was available that should have been released to the front line sooner, not just wrt this incident, but for general handling of the aircraft. Until the BOI reported, we all thought 230 had had a bomb bay fire!!
