skyrangerpro quoted the AAIB report: "There was significant displacement of the cockpit overhead switch panel
which appeared to have been driven downwards on to the upper surface of
the instrument panel coaming.
skyrangerpro same post: Now to me that calls into question the reliability of the assessment of the position of all switches, particularly in the overhead cockpit
True.
Especially as being "driven downwards onto the upper surface of the panel"
would mean that any switch that touched said panel during being driven
would be flipped into the "back" position, typically meaning OFF.
