Hi,
It is very easy to say that things were "obvious" after you know everything that happened. Discovering why things are the way the are is far more difficult when you dont' know.
Post reread .. and can you reread mine
Suppose IF
You are responsable of a plane (and so .. directly of all people aboard)
Someone came to you with a bad news:
We have lost contact with our plane.
What you will do ? by all means find what happened to the plane ...
You are the boss there .. so you know how all is working in your company
You know who contact .. you know all the technical stuff at your disposition for try to know what happened ..
Reminder: ACARS checked ONE HOUR before ETA !! (astonishing fact)
Instead .. you make some interview to the press .. and disseminate speculations
Are you the boss there ? or simply a spokesperson ?
From the first second communication from Air France with the press has been below any ... and they lost a lot of credit for their future communications ...
Who can be trusted after such behavior?
