It seems a pretty logical conclusion. Taking off is a fairly normal exercise which well-trained airline pilots should be able to perform in decent weather. The airline is not exactly going great guns, with its parent airline SAS recently announcing that it was offloading it. Bad publicity like grounded planes would have looked bad, and a technical fault is not what anyone needs. The pilots want to keep their jobs. So they take off. Oops.
