Told you.

Passenger: you’re clutching at straws, and making no sense. Multiple professionals on this board and elsewhere have said this was a non-event. Now the BAF stayed they share that view, and the pilots have been desuspended without any follow up. What more do you need?

For every professional who said it was a non-event, I can give you a quote from a professional who said it was stupid and/or dangerous to perform with passengers.

The decision from the Luftfahrt-Bundesamtes (LBA) please. We now only have the conclusion from the Bundesaufsichtsamt für Flugsicherung (BAF).

And on what basis do you think the conclusion of BAF will state anything different to the one published by the LBA?
Let's not kid ourselves, aircraft are made to sustain significantly more impressive manoeuvres than this, even during a routine flight from A to B without a missed approach. So are aircrew.
There's still this thing called airmanship. The pilots on this flight elected to use theirs, with a fine result as an outcome. At NO point was the integrity or safety of the aircraft, its crew or passengers ever put in jeopardy.
Please stop fear mongering.

In essence, it's just a little while longer and I can state these words once more: told you so.
