I have not followed this story closely but it amazes me how this can happen. I have not seen any speculation as to how it happened. If he was way over max speed, how could it not be intentional.
Why isn't captain being made famous?
Would have been a pilot, not the captain. However, unless the bridge crew was unconscious, they had to be complicit (or under duress).
Great question!
