Hhmmm, more criticism ...

:- of flight crew who had an unprecedented event and managed (with the automatics) to get everyone home alive when they had less than a minute to assess and react.

:- of the AAIB who cannot publish an update until they are SURE of what they have found. If they are working on something very serious, then anything less than a full explanation may cause panic in the travelling public. And the airline business is in a bad enough way as it is. If they are thinking of saying, "We have a bunch of ideas - and it could have been any one of them" then that will also cause a bad reaction. They do not 'owe' us anything, until they have something they can say with certainty.

And this thread was doing so much better of late.
