Some of you guys just don't get it. This is not about whether the pilots were IMC/VMC etc. It is about the rules for BOIs which, at the time, said pilots could only be found grossly negligent if there was absolutely no doubt whatsoever as to the cause of the accident. As the MOD have not/cannot satisfy that burden of proof, the 'verdict' of gross negligence remains flawed. Rick and John did not and should not need to prove anything
Thats is true. I have said all along that the pilots were NOT grossly negligent.
The displayed poor captaincy and were unprofessional but I agree that they were not Grossly negligent
