Not sure if I'd describe a "damaged tail" as a non-event - how would AAIB classify it?
A damaged tail could mean any one of a thousand things, Most likely the jorno (like the rest of us) doesn't know exactly what the damage is or what problems the a/c has and so is speculating.
The AAIB will do what they always do, Investigate the incident a report. Don't forget that a LOT of AAIB reports quote the information source as 'report submitted by pilot and subsequent telephone enquries' simply because the event is a non event.
These kinds of postings are not useful.
Why not?
It's always interesting to see other peoples 'take' on these situations.
Also fun to laugh at media reporting.......
