Then why did this story make news? You're right, we will know once the official report comes out.

I know passengers love to over react. That's what they do best. They have NO idea what goes on behind the scenes. But I believe them and trust what they said actually happened in this situation.
It's so easy for all of us to judge and say "I would have done this and I would have done that". Looking at what we know as of now and being in situations with captains who make horrible decision time and time again (especially those who refuse to do what's right just because they will be ruffling some feathers), I stand by my call and say she MESSED UP.
