You are right they have blood on their hands maybe even rising above it even a little way would have helped,

If the weather was the cause of the crash I'm sure the investigation will lead to job losses.

Sounds like the pilots were well experienced and did their job.

Been a terrible year for planes. Although this year has very much had a long string of freak events.

I think they told him not to increase altitude because of other aircraft which would then have put more lives in jeopardy. Pilots are conditioned that in emergencies the risk of other lives is also tantamount which is why they will always try to ditch in the sea or away from populated areas

what I don't understand is why they were flying at all, if the storm was so bad they couldn't fly through it and the flight path of other planes meant they couldn't divert? It was a routine 2 hour flight, was it a freak storm that was not forecast?

It could have been a a brief Freak Storm
little time but to up.

And Its a Fact that they asked to go up
but the base said NO
due to other planes above them

The good thing that's come out of this tragedy is that there are actual bodies to bury and we know how the plane crashed.

It's a shame it's happened in the first place.

I suppose that's a point, it's cold comfort but true.

The explains at least why there was no room for them to rise above the storm they shouldn't have been in the air at all
