Prvtpltradartech, I'm curious. Would you have preferred that the crew pushed on, so that the flight report turned out like the other one you posted, where the pilot took two nurses with him in the accident?
At least that way the poor kid wouldn't be in a coma. Instead he would be DEAD!
And if that is what you call a CFIT situation, then I'm guilty of it, quite regularly, most days. I control my flight all the way down into the terrain, then I shut down. It's CFIT accidents that we are concerned about, not CFIT situations.
