I'm sure this post won't last long.

bubbers44, why would you think that ? Someone further up the chain might agree with you but the post is fine by me for the moment.

At the end of the day, the investigatory conclusions will be what they will be.

The sequelae are the important things - what the Industry does to plug whatever the hole(s) in the dyke might turn out to be.

It is important that we all keep in mind that aeroplanes are not perfect and the whole operation is based on probabilities (and possibilities, as PJ2, I think, admonished) as well as sensibly mitigated risks.

The overall safety of aviation is a progressive dance sort of animal - we just keep nibbling away at it, improving things here and there and all the while enjoying the benefits.
