I would be as delighted as anyone to see the crew of ZD576 cleared of gross negligence. However, the more I read the thread, the less sure I am of what people are expecting would follow if that should happen.
As I understand it, the majority of contributors believe that if it can be shown that FADEC software (or other failures) could conceivably have contributed to the accident even if there was no evidence that it did, then the extreme verdict of gross negligence (absolutely no doubt at all) is unsustainable.
It gives me no pleasure to make the point but if there are no facts to prove the verdict, by the same logic, there are no facts to show that the crew was not responsible which must remain at least a possibility.
May I ask what happens if the verdict should be over-turned? Please, no heated demands for what it ought to be but simply some facts about what course the law might then be required to pursue or indeed if it needs to pursue any course at all.
