You're spot-on there Vessbot.
We've all seen press reports that have absolutely nothing to do with what actually happened. Especially where aviation is concerned.
It is though , interesting to speculate and try to see if we can pre-empt the "experts".
Main thing is that we remain objective , balanced and above all,,,friendly toward each other when proffering forth our own "massively expert" opinions.
There is indeed a load of garbage written on some forums , but I always try to see forums as a platform for good and positive inputs..
and look forward to reading the findings of this JAL incident.
