A cursory review of dogcharlietree’s post history indicates he/she may have been a crew member.
If so, well done.
No lives lost. A great outcome.
Interestingly where I used to work, in an evacuation the F/O could very easily be the first one down the slide/out the door.
Would be a bit harsh to question that 28 years in to the future.

Rod's comments contrast a little (as one might expect).
Certainly, I have sympathy for some of his thoughts - for better balance, the investigation report ought to have had some qualifications/caveats included in respect of a number of comments/conclusions.
An interesting chap whom I knew reasonably well prior to and around the date of the mishap - although I can't recall ever having flown in the cockpit with him.

Obviously people forget New Zealand's biggest peacetime disaster - and some say the nation's biggest cover-up. On November 28, 1979, an Air New Zealand DC10 crashed into Mt Erebus.
