Is anyone in any doubt any more, why this all went horribly wrong?

Four things are FACT:

1. Fuel switches were in the incorrect position.
2. The 10 minute to land warning was ignored.
3. The pilot was unable to carry out an EOL successfully.
4. The pilot was very very experienced.

On that dark, wet night over Strathclyde all the holes in the swiss cheese - lined up.

NO -ONE is infallible. WE ARE NOT COMPUTERS.
