When you both stop being silly, I'll re-enter the debate.
That sounds like the too cool for school version of 'taking my bat and ball and going home'.

The difference between your side of the argument and the general consensus, 3 Holer, is that whilst the consensus admits that other parties were just as responsible for placing some holes in the Swiss cheese that led to that accident as the crew were; you argue that the crew were responsible for no holes at all!

What have you learned from that accident? To always crosscheck your indicated position against a chart when descending below the height of a mountain nearby that you should be able to see but you can't? Or that if you find yourself in a position where you are required to descend below the height of a mountain that is nearby that you can't see, you should follow the approved procedures and stay at a safe altitude until your position is fixed by a ground based navigation aid located on the 'safe side' of the nearby mountain, that you can't see..?
