It is not about her as a person. This is about a reasonable expectation from the travelling public that the pilots are able to save their arses when things go wrong. The STCs are bestowed their privileges from HKCAD, they have a responsibility to set standards and protect the traveling public. It is past time they made a stand. Stomping their feet and writing a letter to the DFO did little more than increase their culpability when a hull is lost with all on board.
