I for one find IGh's post very difficult to read, let alone comprehend, because of the frequent changes of font size, bold vs unbold, etc. It's a shame too, because I think he has a point to make, but that point is obscured by the typography
Always was, always will be.

It's difficult to select fact from opinion and thus to carry on a discussion.

Shut that door...

The board's staff criticized the pilots for failing to follow emergency procedures, "squandering" nearly two minutes with extraneous tasks, such as dealing with a cockpit door that became unlocked, and failing to properly divide up duties.
Is this the first incident where the post 9/11 importance of a secure cockpit door has delayed or hampered the crew in dealing with an emergency?
Is there a HF lesson to be learnt here?
Was the crew concerned that the fire could have been terror related and so put that as a priority, or would the crew have done the same thing pre 9/11?

No (see 3)
No - not relating to the door, anyway
No
I suspect so
