Where did you learn English?

Before seeing what you want to read in the above linked report, try reading the headline and first paragraph, and then deciding what the words say.

The headline states: "Plane crashed after maintenance blunder"

It does not say: 'Plane crashes because of maintenance blunder' as it seems you want it to say.

The first par reads: "The failure to repair a faulty navigational aid led to a jumbo jet crashing..."

The key words here are 'led to.' The paragraph goes on to make clear who holds this opinion: "...according to an official accident report." You are the only person using the word "blame" here.

Perhaps you're one of those people who simply wants to throw mud at the BBC right now, maybe not. Either way, get a grip man!

There are lessons to be learned from the AAIB report and everyone's views of it, but only if we read the words first.
