Evilroy. So you are saying that the military airspace and the prohibition on flight planning along the coast had no bearing on the accident in any way?
How do you know this?
Absolutely I say that. The pilot had the opportunity to wait for a clearance coastal to Sydney but twice turned down that opportunity. The pilot, reportedly, took off night VFR with suspect instruments and electrical systems. The pilot had several opportunities to turn back, to declare a PAN due instrument malfunction, to request vectors due weather, etc, but in all cases failed to do so.
If we are to apply your logic (or lack of it) then the responsibility for the Tenerife disaster lay with the administrators at Gran Canaria who closed the airport after a terrorist attack. They must have been knowingly sending people to their death since they were forcing aircraft to divert from their flight plans.
Your inability to acknowledge a simple mistaken assertion is quite disturbing.
