Be it , i dont see the relevance of chosing a case of pilot neglect that ended well for bashing a generation of new pilots as having no airmanship.
How do you figure this was due to pilot neglect? The A/C is released with the fuel gages deferred, he is brought paperwork that shows the correct fuel load was on the airplane (pounds instead of kilos, but nowhere in the paperwork it said that) I just don't see as to how he neglected to do his job????
