Although Rainboe can come across as quite blunt, I've got to say, I agree with him on this one.
My background is a limited rotary wing one, now I'm in avionics systems engineering, so my experience of two man fixed wing commercial ops is purely theoretical, plus knowledge built from the last 12-13 years of engineering with the obvious contact with still current flight crew.
My main interest is not what they should or shouldn't have done, this will hopefully become factual at the end of the accident report, but why they did they take that particular course of action. Upto to what point did everything seem ok, what cues were missed, why were they missed and what eventually made them aware of the dire situation.
These answers, if they can be accurately reported without political persuasions coming into play, MAY help future systems, training and attitudes become a little safer.
