- gazchop 2y agoThere is a whole chain of causality. They were killed by multiple successive problems compounding. See Swiss cheese model.
- thekevan 2y agoI'm really not sure the chain of bird strike, belly landing, mid runway landing and fiery explosion are equal parts of that chain. One seems to weigh heavier than the rest.
- gazchop 2y agoThere's a few more you're missing there which is the point of the investigation.
- davisp 2y agoAbsolutely correct! Had the bird strike not occurred, there wouldn’t have been a crash. Had things with the go around been handled properly, there would have been no crash. Etc etc. The fact that a wall was 50m out of compliance or whatever it ends up being will be a footnote at best in the review of this crash.
