Quite a disbelieving chap aren't you, no not Tom or Dick or even Harry but the pilot who didn't do his checks told me. He had quite allot on his mind at the time and this obviously didn't include flying, I think this accident has allot to do with the term fit to fly. Mind else where when it should be in the cockpit, that is what happened.
Not everyone on pprune has an opinion based on what they think the facts are, some know the facts of certain events.
