Admittedly that's a side of the story I don't know so well (the accident itself was a little over 6 years before I was born), so if you could PM me with some details that'd be grand. I'm not sure...

Understood, sir. I may not be a pilot, but I like to think that neither am I a complete idiot (most of the time at any rate...). I can't live it the way you guys do, but I do my homework in order...

Fair point, but is this something you know to be true or something that you would hope is true? The statement seems to be a bit of a sweeping generalisation to me.
