I'd like to express my sympathy for the crew members concerned. It is appalling that Emirates as an Airline is putting the blame on them. The DFO (joke) should be sticking up for his crews and working to prevent a repetition. Blame Culture just ensures that no-one will give a heads -up when they come across another likely problem.
I hope other Emirates pilots are supporting this crew in some way although I guess it won't be public.
