I agree these things should be discussed as long as no 'this was the cause' statements are made, and those stridently demanding that everyone else say nowt until AAIB report time should wind their necks in.
And don't forget, the AAIB is not the paragon of disinterest (that's disinterest, not uninterest; something quite different) that it once perhaps was. Some years ago I was close to one of their investigations (it involved a pilot in our group - not me - in our shareoplane and I was last to fly it before the accident pilot). I was deeply unimpressed with some aspects of the report and complained to the investigor. He agreed I had a valid point, apologised, but would not change the report.
it ain't neccessarily so
it ain't neccessarily so
the the things that you're liable
to read in the AAIB bible
it ain't neccessarily so.....
