I'm a little offended at that insinuation to be honest -
I've explained my take on questioning and impartiality above.
Don't be offended, it's just the cut and thrust of discussion :-).
For what it's worth, I think the BEA have been very impartial and
thorough, not only in the analysis of what happened, but also the
recommendations, of which there are many and in a subtle way,
point fingers of responsibility in several directions. The fact that they
are not even more explicit is most likely for legal reasons, but there
is definately an air of almost irritation in parts.
This is the series of threads that refuses to die and now that the
final report has been issued, might it be a good idea to analyse
the recommendations in terms of what they are really saying ?...
