Big question, of course, is whether it was
-finger trouble or
-using wrong figure from loadsheet, or
-insert in wrong place or
-zillions of other possibilities,
that caused this incident?
Always wondered with my own company why the layout of our ACARS loadsheet wasn't changed (e.g. separate header with just figures used for input), same for layout on FMS performance page, etc...
I feel sorry for the crew they had to resign, but now they can give honest feedback (f.i. if they think that factors like schedule contributed) with no pressure from anybody. This will hopefully lead to useful feedback/recommendations.
