The crew displayed good airmanship. They did not act in haste, they allowed themselves ample time to understand and cope with the situation, reduce tension and stress. Their decision to divert was well considered and executed.
Unlike the ill fated Lear 35A G-MURI carrying Coultard to Nice. Unfortunately in that accident the crew paid for their haste with their lives.
The probable cause in the accident report of the Lear 35 accident was:
"The accident resulted from a loss of yaw and then roll control which appears to be
due to a failure to monitor flight symmetry at the time of the thrust increase on the
right engine.
The hastiness exhibited by the Captain, and his difficulty in coping with the stress
following the engine failure, contributed to this situation."
We should on this forum applaud this crew rather than criticise them and hope that the tabloids learn something from it.
