I must side with FDG on this, that is being critical of part of the report's writing style (not the crew or their actions). The ATSB should state fact not opinion.

From the ATSB website, their goals are to:
• conduct impartial, systemic and timely safety investigations
• report safety issues clearly and objectively, without attributing blame or liability.

The definition of Objective from the OED, "Not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts"


The reader should infer that an action was a "Good Decision, Son" by reading that the crew were faced with no better options available.

And as an aside, when did the ATSB start naming the companies involved? I always recalled that the company name was omitted (although it was pretty obvious who it was to those in the industry)?
