Perhaps they will do their job according to their terms of reference. I would think that does NOT entail jumping to conclusions along the lines of "if they're Korean it must be their fault."

They will, I am certain, be aware of the reputation that has been generated by western pilots who have worked in this region. However, as professional technical people they will want to establish hard facts using verifiable data. If you have ever written a technical report then you will understand that it needs to stand up to scrutiny. Shooting from the hip as so many do on this forum is not their modus operandi.

Lastly, I believe that in the UK, by way of comparison, the AAIB does not apportion blame as such. I don't know if the same holds true for the NTSB. Happy to stand corrected on this last point.
