The blurb says

This film brings together an independent team of leading air crash investigators to provide the first credible solution to the mystery of flight 447. Conducting their own tests and simulations using the available evidence, they painstakingly piece together a convincing scenario of what they believe happened. Their conclusions raise worrying concerns about aviation's increasing reliance on automated flight systems.

I watched this last night, as a fan of air crash investigation I really wanted to watch this and also because I remember being in work last year when it happened and hearing that one of the passengers was meant to connect on a flight to Manchester, which made it hit home a little more than usual.
Was interesting to see what they've come up with, and as with most unfortunate accidents it did appear that the chain of events they came up with was very plausable.

Saying that though I'm not sure it was the best programme to watch just over a week before I fly out over the pond on a similar aircraft when terrified of flying!!
