Caz,
For an A1 pilot you are being remarkably dim.
Mr Holbrook gives us a visibility of 1 - 2 nms.
The lighthouse keepers give us visibility of a few metres.
Another observer says it was around 500m.
Who was right?
Well quite possibly they all were. That is the nature of patchy fog.

The point you failed to answer was what conditions were encountered by the crew at waypoint change? Do you have a shred of evidence to show the crew were not VMC and flying at a sensible speed for the conditions?
Do you accept the crew were still within CDT and would still have been so on planned landing time?

If you do, just where is the negligence?

Welcome back, by the way. I notice that you and Purdey stayed very quiet on my entries on speed anomolies.

Cat got your tongue?
