CptCaveman,
Your location says Istanbul, but you obviously don't know what you are talking about.
The F/O was NOT an ex Air Force guy. He was a new hire, still in training.
The other 2 pilots (Captain and the Line Check Airman) were ex Air Force pilots. One was an F16, the other F4 pilot with great reputation for safety.
The message I get from this accident is; If this can happen to those experienced pilots, it can happen to me. So I should NOT spread rumors, look only at the FACTS, and decide for myself how to avoid a similar situation.
Referring to those of you sit behind your keyboards, and type how they screwed up should think carefully before typing...
Very frustrating to see "fellow" pilots posting messages here, acting like ambulance chasing lawyers or newspaper reporters with absolutely nothing to do with aviation.
This thread, Air France thread, all the same..
Am I the only one who feels this way???
