Lets be totally frank and honest here. There will be very few people who haven't considered that pilot error is possible. Those of us who hope for something different will continue to question those who have made their minds up. This is why Sid gets his (totally undeserved) abuse on this thread. We know that the tanks and pipes to the engine were virtually dry, it ran out of fuel, the end. The red herring of spillover is VERY unlikely. However, the pilot MAY have been presented with confusing information. As SAS has stated, he should not have ignored the reds, but what if he really was confused by what he was presented with. What if his technical knowledge had not been reinforced and he chose to believe the gauges if they showed full supply tanks? What if, What if, What if?????
You see, no CVR means we DON'T KNOW what if!! This is where I struggle, because you cant convict someone on a best guess. Ignoring the reds is still pilot error.................. but did he??
If you say yes, please can you prove it??
