I am just the same as all the posters on this thread; I really don't have a clue what happened as I wasn't there!
However, I can imagine the following scenario post the British Midland incident all those years ago:
Big post mortem meeting between all affected services, organisations etc.
How effective were various responses?
What can and should be done in the event this happens again in future?
Set out conclusions and recommendations in a series of pre-ordained procedures in the event of scenarios X,Y or Z happening.
And this time, the procedures were followed.
What would have been the response if it all went bad this time without any such procedures and an aircraft ended up on top of 20 cars, 12 lorries and a school bus?
I would wager the same people currently condemning and criticising all and sundry on this forum would be doing exactly the same, only louder!
Why not give it a break and wait for the inevitable inquiry publishes its findings?
