Hmmm - inspecting the whole flight control system rather than one specific item sounds much more like clutching at straws trying to find a plausible excuse for the ditching rather than an exercise in checking a failed system (that has been proven to have failed) to ensure there isn't a fleet-wide problem.

Sending the crews for further training just looks like a*se-covering but is only to be expected so someone is seen to be doing something.
