Shot down so diligently as you shoot down the skill/decisions of 5 professional aviators (whose lives depend upon their actions); alas they had no ability to contact you for advice on how to proceed with such an easy decision tree during their brief combat mission??
DearSKS777FLYER
Very balanced post, I must say.
Simply reread my statement and you will see that I didn’t shoot down anyone.
To me the crew might have been very professional, at least the modern electronic way. But at the same time they must have been very, very lucky.
I'd rather be a little less proficient in handling ECAM, QRH, FCOM, bulletins and all that paper cr@p and get my plane down as fast as possible.
Maybe you’re upset that I pretended that they
MUST have been lucky. So be it, but that is not a shooting down of a colleague.
If you’re pointing at me saying that I’d
RATHER be a little less book bound, again, so be it, but that did not imply any insult to others.
If you point at someone, then three fingers point back at you.
