threemiles, I doubt whether the delay in releasing the report into the Kenya Airlines crash would have had any effect on the Ethiopian crash. It would appear that loss of spatial awareness is becoming all too frequent these days.
You could argue that the release of the Flash Airlines crash report has had no effect on the training of the Kenyan Airlines or Ethiopian Airlines crews or the Gulf Air crash, or the Adam Air crash.
Crews are not been properly trained to hand fly these aircraft; they are overly reliant on automation; they cannot even properly engage the autopilot or check whether it has engaged. Basic stuff that is the bed rock of aviation safety is being neglected and the cost is mounting.
