212 Man, I do not agree that there is nothing to be learned from the ETAP accident. The 225 has so many "help the pilot stay out of the water" features which in this case were either not used or wrongly used. Not to mention very iffy SOPs with non flying pilot being requested to look out rather than in and some very questionable descent procedures in and out of cloud.

Whereas I think my own company operate to very safe SOPs it is always good for us to look objectively at our own fying/ procedures and ask the question could that ever have been me? A comprehensive report will provide us with definative truth as to what happened and hopefully by default make us all that little bit safer.
