Simple physics?!..Buzz, you made me laugh a little today..thanks.
Let's face it...Airbus knows exactly what happened. They've known all along... and by now they've backed up their theory with real physics. (finite element analysis)
The AIBN will need to address the root cause soon..and it's tough.. this catastrophe was caused by a "maintenance event(s)".
