Hi brothers and sisters,
AF358 was THE beginning of the end for Air France safety image.
Hard to resume it in a few words, but knowing absolutely everything from the first minutes this crash happened till the publication of the ashamed TSB/BEA report, I will say that among all the numerous swiss cheese holes which did exist at that time, one was by far the biggest one: lack of airmanship and, above all, lack of hand flying skills of the (ex Air Inter) flight deck crew.
Not blaming them at all for that, but really angry against the same political serial killers who, since Toronto crash, are still in command of Air France, BEA, DGAC, etc...
