boing was asked to comment on this but its silent.....this tells a lot.


Without a link to a legitimate source you're just "armchair piloting" yourself.


i'm not the one joking over how it was a pilot mistake over a simple procedure they should know about. From day one i told this was the system getting out of pilot control....it seems it was very much the case.
just like the frozen pitot thinking the airplane was flying inverted, nothing the pilot can do, when all systems are giving contradicting information and the pc assumes control while they are doing a checklist.
