I cannot go back through 298 pages and it has probably been said before. However, the first tenet of accident investigation when investigating the case of a fatal accident where the crew are not available to provide evidence, and as taught on all military Flight Safety/Authoriser/Supervisor Courses, is:

Gross Negligence cannot be apportioned to the deceased crew or individual crew members if there is any doubt at all as to what caused the accident

Here there is doubt; so their Air Marshalships, worthy or not, were wrong IMHO to find both pilots so in this accident.

Would that they would realise that and admit the mistake of those who amended the report and allow these 2 chaps to Rest in Peace.
