Ignoring much of the controvery over the investigaion, the pilot at
Habsheim should get a major chunk of the blame. Anyone who chose to risk
an aircraft, full of passengers, at the limits of its capability, during an
unpracticed demonstration, over an airfield he was unfamiliar with, should
have his head examined.

Any combination of Airbus and Air France is hazardous, because Airbus doesn't
like to admit when its planes have defects, and Air France pilots are cowboys
who greatly overestimate their skills and don't like to do things the safe
way.
