LATAM 787 Incident

New thread for this, according to the WSJ the pilots reported loss of flight instruments so it sounds like more than just CAT or somebody bumped the yoke. I didn't link the WSJ article, paywall.

Evidence that the pilot should have known, post-incident, to keep his trap shut.
It is the singular counsel most often granted, and yet it seems so hard for the masses to absorb. In an age of vomiting every finger twitch onto social media to ensure the world follows, the counsel is so simple: say nothing.
Doesn't matter of it's a shooting, car wreck, or an aircraft mishap; the same counsel applies. Now with a few drops of dye in the drinking fountain, the world's imagination runs wild.

It's not the first time one of the powered seat switches has been inadvertantly activated.
