I am not a pilot, I am not a technician or aviation specialist. I am your average passenger who flies constantly around the world.
Gentlemen, most of you are professionals, paid to do a job. I could care less about your problems or issues with such and such aircraft. I am paying you to fly me from A to B fast and safe.
Reading through the comments on this web site, it appears that 3 pilots made wrong decisions. They chose to fly through a storm when many airlines had deviated their course by miles. The Captain went for a nap knowing there was a storm ahead. The two copilots appeared to be poorly trained and unable to cope with issues.
I hope Air France will be punished and the families compensated for what appears to be recklessness, arrogance and a total lack of professionalism from the pilots.
228 people died as a result.
As far as I am concerned I will never fly Air France again and I will tell as many people as possible to do the same.
