TAC
Quite. Earlier in this thread and the previous one in archives, I sparred with K52 over just these inconsistencies.
If you are determined to hang the crew, then take the figures in their worst light. The position report was simply for ATC to gain a general idea of the helo's position - not for the subsequent BofI to hang them with.
No positive evidence exists to prove negligence in this case. Those interested in justice will (and must) give the crew the benefit of the doubt. Those interested in covering their own sorry part in the tragedy will twist any stats to their own end.
