What so many have been reluctant to say – probably being extra cautious because nothing is certain at this time – was finally printed in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal. In my first posting about this terrible aircraft accident I suggested that if icing was indeed the problem – the accident should never have occurred. Now – it is beginning to look as though the “reaction” to icing might have been incorrect causing the aircraft to immediately stall.
Please be mindful of the fact that the investigation of this accident is still in a very early stage. Here is a link to the WSJ article:
