Towerdog, dont judge dead pilots till you get the facts. It is common decency and a basic pilot fraternity thing.
I agree.

Not sure I have judged dead pilots, just being fed up with all the rubbish about a lack of an ILS caused the accident, or that ICAO was responsible, or other off the wall theories when the obvious cause, CFIT should be examined closer.

If the airplane was in good order, and the flight was not hijacked, then incompetence in the cockpit is a real possibillity....

I wish it was not so, but reality is that 100+ folks are dead and I doubt we can blame the Bogeyman or Tinkerbell, yet certain folks are leaving no stone un-turned to shift the focus away from pilot error in any sort or form.
