Brian, thanks. We can all understand how and why Collins crashed, and we can forgive. What we can't say is he was without fault.
That's it in a nutshell folks. The only arguments come when someone says otherwise, ie, the crew was not responsible in any way. The people who say the crew bore no responsibility are not fit to be in command of an airliner ( IMO ) but luckily most who do tow that line have never held ultimate responsibility for people's lives. They are normally folk who like the lime light, like politicians.ALPA's stance is hard to fathom.
