Many things to say about wrong books, reports, analysis, SteOdile, aso.
We need some cynism to keep the eyes open and the mind clear when we see people dying for nothing.
Just one word about Ste Odile flight's ATC , as I would not like that the reader of our thread would get misinformed again : The flight of Ste Odile was NOT RADAR VECTORED. After the trial there is no more doubt about that for anybody. The approach was a VORTAC /VOR-DME approach. The controller did a immediately corrected mistake and showed as not being considered by anybody as connected to the crash (sense of turn, the BEA had to note the fact and noted it, ask question, but nothing followed).
During the trial we discovered that military police searched the Controller immediately without he was asked anything to help to find the plane still missing.
The military lawyer of the controller said me they didn't want to attack Air France for the wrong chart (probably because the IAC was wrong too on that military airfield open to civilian planes).
