Can't argue with any of your points. I feel though we have a responsibility to educate our friends and members of our families as some of the misdirected cries for change are becoming really shrill and strident.
The amount of ignorance and misinformation that is out there is surprising in some cases. This accident has generated a lot of instant experts certain in their assumption that corruption and incompetence are rife at every level in Aviation in Nigeria.
The age of an airplane has less to do with it's airworthiness than the maintenance it receives.
Yet..........The public are not aware (luckily) that having two guys at the pointy end who haven't been paid promptly for the services they render and thus thinking about bread can result in a perfectly serviceable airplane becoming a smoking hole in the ground!!
