Hold on a minute
Quote: various posters subsequent to the NTSB information release yesterday, professing various conclusions about crew acts or omissions, and consequences, relative to sanctions, and system component reforms, and even ... causation.
Forum 11th Commandment: Must Have investigation report and those odd, pesky things, known as facts.
There is just too much left to be uncovered by the investigation process, and then still too much needing to be done to integrate the various and several factual elements into a coherent whole picture of the incident, before many of the assertions being made here would be justified and warranted. True, compared to investigations a couple of decades or so ago, places like this forum provide lots of access to relevant information - all the more so with all the tech gizmos which can show position, time-stamp, and more. But the thread is not the investigation. And before ya'all throw FCOM books at me, just think for a minute: once the facts are indeed known and integrated into a coherent whole picture of the incident, there will be plenty, plenty of time and opportunity to discuss probably dozens of system and subsystem reforms and changes. Wasn't the point, or one of the points, of poster Ian W.'s tutorial on attentional tunneling, a/k/a target fixation, that this could happen to anyone manning the flight controls? But let's hang the crew on suppositions here, heck, it's just the internet.
