Agaricus, the AAIB report came out this morning. Upto that point there was no indication at all as to what caused this accident. The report states what happens but does not explain why.
However, with the crew available, for the sake of safety, if they had intimated any technical malfunction at all, surely the report would include this. The express omission of any reference to technical issues is evident.
As it stands it implies there was no technical error.
PITTS - yet again your emotion clouds your judgement. We know the crew personally and you do not. Knowing them as friends and colleagues does not absolve our desire or responsibility to seek the truth.....for the sake of safety.
