You're thinking AIBs. SIBs are privileged and not open for public access. AIBs otoh are matters of public record (and can lead to punitive action against pilots), but that won't be available for another year probably. For SIB access you'll have to go to your safety guy and he has an account with access to SIBs.

Someone has been watching too many movies. Look at this comment:

Wayne Fisch · General Manager and CEO. at Independent Thought Co.
Anyone believing this is an absolute idiot. Why didn't the fuel ignite on impact? Because there was none.

Because every crash landing ends in an explosion lol.

At least they didn't have to invent a new non-existent part on the Viper to blame the crash on.

T-bird number 6 must have been maintained by the same guy who works on the F-16 canopy defogger.

Anyway - That's all from me. 7777s right. All's well that ends well. Be safe out there guys. It really sucks when blue cars show up in driveways.
