sinala I totally accept and understand your point.
There may well have been more going on than is evident beyond the max BRW problem that may even come down to the bumped passengers and a shoddy cover up.
We may indeed never know.
On the simple cause and effect I still stand by bumping baggage/freight and handling that but as you rightly point out we do not know the whole story.
I know what I would have done, but hell - I have made some massive miscalls over the years.
Don't make errors often even now, but when I do they are normally of Biblical proportions and cost me bucks.
Best regards
