From posts since mine your claim from "not-easy-to-dismiss" sources" appears to have been dismissed.
And please don't be so dismissive of me. I have read all post & also the one you suggested.
Your statement re: dead stick landings also appears to be incorrect. "sheer luck" Well I dont think so. Ok I'm just SLF but my view was reflected by suninmyeyes in post 1765.
My trust in flying has not been decreased by this, in fact has been increased. I trust the people I fly with. I also trust the AAIB to get to the bottom of this no matter however much speculation there might be on this site.
My bottom line was reflected by suninmyeyes. "A manual landing was achieved in which all the passengers survived" For that I thank & respect the crew. I'd rather have been on BA038 than the Madrid flight.
