Hmm I never post anything on forums about crashes until the AAIB has done their bit as I never like to speculate however one of the things I thought of was that the altimeter could of been part of the problem because the crews, as far as I know, never made a ‘brace for impact’ call to passengers suggesting they may not of even been aware of the problem.
I suppose with the altimeter being faulty, combined with 2 mile visibility it would of made the crews job harder. Visibility always looks worse when you’re higher up than it does on the surface. I wonder what the fault was exactly with the altimeter, incorrect QNH or an actual altimeter fault?
