no water checks carried out

bae146 is clearly stating that at british airways the water sump checks were never carried out, just stamped as being done. I recall earlier in this post baengineering saying the same thing! Clearly water was building up in this centre tank from poor maintenance practice that was widespread at cc.

All i can say is the sooner the media gets this out to the wider public the better. Also why has ba lied in the report? Making out they were doing a study on water sumping just before the incident! It would be amusing if the gravity of the situation were not so significant. A large aircraft nearly down over london.

Any other ba engineers wish to comment?
