Maxangle, yeah the snow was gone on the right wing. What about the left wing? Sucks if its still there, doesnt it. These guys deiced, but still crashed. Guess what was the cause?
It was probably gone from the other wing as well but don't worry, my comment was made with my tongue firmly in my cheek as most of the pros on the board will have realised.
"Clean wing" is gospel in our airline and anyone who deliberately flouts the rule would expect a P45 (boot firmly applied to arse in the direction of the door for those not it the UK) and rightly so.
