I got the first bit but this is beyond me.

and we would not have had the clue of the switch being turned off after the crash.
Someone right there thought he was being clever by switching off the nav computer.
How did you leap to the switch being toggled after the crash, but before fire took hold? The AAIB evidence suggested it was off before impact. Are you saying someone was on site and risked their life to dash into wreckage strewn across a hillside, searched for a single switch and toggled it? Wow!

Sorry but I’m reading up on this as points are made. From what I can see it was Mr Cable who noted the switch being off, but Mr Parkinson who dealt with MOD and Racal over the analysis of the Tans unit. There seems to be a yawning gap whereby Mr Cable’s evidence is not addressed in the Racal investigation. The AAIB report comes to an abrupt end just as interesting questions are raised. Mr Cable doesn’t seem too impressed with MOD. A proper investigation would, as chugalug suggests, fill those gaps.
