From the press, from the politicians...

All groundless speculation, mainly about weather.

Duh...

so weather was bad, so what? Happens everyday. Planes don't fall off the sky just because of bad weather.

Would take at least a significant human error for the weather to play a role. Possible of course. But even if so, main casue would be human error in a bad weather situation.

Just like AF447. Yes, weather was bad. But more to the point, pilots were horribly clueless.

Here, it appears the pilots were ex-Spanair. Which was a pretty decent outfit.

At this point, everything is possible, and these I know everything (really, nothing) types ought to keep their mouth shut.
