- quite agree, but 90% of this thread is full of criticism and vitriol about 3 Captains who according to the FSX experts here were 'frightened' to uplift extra fuel and obviously messed up, when if we accept the IAA report, they all behaved correctly, sensibly and 2 out of 3 made it with the planned minimum fuel, 1 just 'missed' by just 75kg. It reads to me that all 3 diverted with more than the 'blessed minimum' so they HAD thought about it.

If we could all accept that it would be good!
BOAC best post so far, I hope the guys who are Ryanair bashing come to their senses, Ryanair is a very safe and well run airline and if an airline can have 25 years of safe flying its some record to be very proud of.
