TDracer,
Concur sir, the human aspect is the most tragic here. 3 deaths, god forbid more?? Yet there are idiots arguing over semantics for what propose?
The crew of this flight will never get over this incident, the drivers frankly may not deserve to if what the NTSB are inferring is true.
The meat will be pulled from the bones no doubt, the truth will out as they say. What concerns me is how much will it be digested, distilled and ACTIONED? The industry has managed to sleep walk into a state where being a "good" pilot has less to do with stick and rudder and more to do with managing a computer (sh!t in,sh!t out). I find it abhorrent that alleged lack of basic aircraft systems knowledge and/or inability to fly the aircraft in near perfect conditions killed 3 kids.
Hoping for some official FACTS soon so that armchair pundits move onto the next salacious episode.
