Privy Council
DD...yeah, well mate...the privy council doesnt live in the world I live in ......a bold statement to think these blokes were experienced aviation individuals??? in what fields are we talking about???....as suggested ...3rd parties provided info so that they were able to give/pass judgement.....
The combination of 400,s and Brians arguments is where I feel we must find common ground,this is not the first incident of this kind and it certainly wont be the last.....
I constantly try to find reasoning in decisions I make,some worthy of extra training,some absolutly brilliant,more so the first than the last......but at least I,m critical of myself and of no other......
the bottom line ....as PIC ....dont pass the buck,you are an will be responsible for the conduct of your flight,if your not up to it,dont take it,and as 400 stated and I believe this,Jim would have found himself accountable whether it was is cockup or not....that is the PIC,S resonsibilty....
thats the other problem inherant in aviation....it can never be a combination of people and problems,someone has to be the scapegoat....we need to nail "someone"....one individual has to be responsible.In case,s like this,it is just not the case
Brian,great reading mate,actually copied it and fwded to several people in my Ops dept for reading...if you dont mind......PB
