So why did the cover-up start as soon as the BOI convened?

Just one example:

This thread has had contributions from people professing to be "the other crew" explaining how Messrs Tapper & Cook stated that fateful evening that they (as the SF crew) would fly the Inverness task because of the poor weather and the inexperience on the Chinook of the RN Pilot of the other crew that had been scheduled to do that task.

If that is true then how is it that the BOI, following interviews conducted under oath with detatchment personnel (including the other crew), stated in their report that Tapper & Cook flew that sortie because "Detatchment crews preferred to operate on a day on /day off rota"?
