Travel in Pumas
This will be a very simplistic view, but the captain of an aircraft is in legal charge of the operation of the machine, with supervision of the passengers being delegated to the LM in the back of the Puma.
If a captain didn't feel safe, why would he/she fly an aircraft in such a manner as to endanger it and its occupants? My view is simplistic in that it doesn't take into account the mission or moral pressure of course, but shouldn't safe operation be the bottom line?
