India 4 2 :
Nonsense! There is a reason why it is called the World Geodetic System.
Don't be fool by the name , marketing , it is a US DoD baby, developed by them for
their GPS , derived from WGS60, itself from an earlier one started when they launched satellites in the 50's . WGS84 still uses their old North American reference of 85W centered in middle of USA.
White Knight : I am not talking about EK in particular, just looking at incident/accident reports . The recent TK A330 in KTM, or the SFO 777 are good examples to start with.
I think you perhaps mix up causes and contributing factors. For instance fog or Cb are not causes . Like QNH/QFE or m/feet conversion. Contributing factors maybe ( as we do not yet know yet what happened here , just Internet speculation ) but not causes. That was my point.
