It mentions the previous incident where the Polish president tried to put pressure on the pilot to land when the pilot did not want to, an event that I was not really aware of.
There is an AAIB report mentioned over on the GA forum where a Comanche crashed in Sussex in bad weather and the analysis was that the pilot was subject to ‘get-there-itis’.
The Guardian article (one of a number it has carried) would tend to suggest that a similar attitude was at work here which is a more reasoned argument than some of the conspiracy notions printed above.
