SID I know this is deeply unpalatable to you but I think you should breath out and face the facts and findings detailed in the AAIB report and see them for what they actually represent.
DB, I am only presenting things that 'should' have been going on and what 'may' have been presented 'if' the CAD had failed.

Nothing you have said is unpalatable to me as if is clear that the prime pumps were switched on, that would have give the warning shown, which for some reason wasn't actioned or there wasn't time to action. It is also clear that regardless of the switch positions, there wasn't enough fuel in the ac to get back to base with the 85kgs required.

I know exactly what your and those that support you so strongly are saying, but imho it's not as simple as you present it. As I said at the beginning of this post, I am showing the cockpit as best I can to you and those that may need to see for yourselves what cautions were, or should have been illuminating.

Tonight I'll try and show the same pictures/vid with the CAD off.
