Hi,
It is clear that the skills of this particular crew played the significant role in the accident but this is not a general malaise as this accident is unique and other crews have dealt successfully with similar incidents. This alone should be sufficient to demonstrate that the accident is not indicative of a general problem.
Maybe not a general problem ..
Not related with this particular accident .... but the fact is that for decades .. automatism or not .. the human part of the plane does not seem to increase in security ... it remains stagnant in the statistics .. even with all the progress
