Just finished reading and extended report about this event at AVH. Oh My God!! If something could go wrong, it did. I do not often say this - or need to - but I think those pilots were idiots. As several commenters reminded us, may accidents can be prevented BEFORE the AC ever leaves the ground. This is one such case, I am sure. The list of screw ups by pilots, ground and tower personnel, everyone involved, is beyond belief.
