I'm quite surprised at the lack of reaction to this post. It seems to me that the flight on the day of the accident followed procedures which had been done for years, whether strictly legal or not, and this legislation makes it all 'ok'. By anyone's standard I am at a loss to understand how it is possible for a flight to be legal in which neither pilot is strictly qualified and the only qualified person is occupying a non control seat. This legislation makes it all ok for this to keep happening!!!
