Yonosoy. Yes, he is one of us. Yes, he has our support. However, flying the extra distance/time with a major malfunction is a BAD decision.

What is there to discuss? Really?

The captain made a bad choice. Why did he chose not to land at MNL, a suitable airport? What can we learn from his mistake?

Everyone can have a bad day. Even a captain. But this decision does not appear reasonable. The plane did land. Everyone was safe. But the choice exposed all to needles risk.
