The aircraft had 3,000lbs before departure from EGAC, more then sufficient for the aircraft to operate to EICK and back to EGAC.

I think trying to rule this down to one single cause, is what will actually see this accident happen again - there is never just one cause, its a series of ones which combine together to cause the accident and its from these from which we should learn.

The fact the No. 1 was retarded on the 3rd final approach also significantly contributed - As did the fact they were fatigued and there were numerous other factors, a statement of ''oh he bust the minima 3 times'' would be an insult to the investigation team of this accident.

As has been advised previously, please read all 244 pages.
I did read every page of the report. The accident would not have happened if the crew had not busted the minimums. Which bit of that is not clear to you, or the investigators (if they happen to be reading).
