Sorry, I just have to come back to this.
OH
MY
GOD!!!!
Are you seriously using the fact that over 30 crews didn't crash when faced with a minor indication error in the cruise as an example of how good pilots are?
All any pilot in that situation had to do was
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING and they would have survived. Not just survived, but continued in straight and level flight without anybody down the back ever knowing about it.
The fact that a single crew crashed under those circumstances is a searing indictment of the state of piloting skill in the industry.
Congratulating yourself that some did not is jaw dropping.
