The fictional crash had 29 people killed on the ground. Please explain in full detail, giving examples, why this is unrealistic? As I already said, if it had been hundreds, people would have slated that too. By making the figure low, which IMO is perfectly plausible, the producers avoided some scaremongering.
By the way, with reference to an early comment, I did not mean to imply ALL ATCOs are arrogant, as I know well from experience they are not! Just a few who deny all possibility of things going wrong worried me and worried ex-ATCOs I work with.
