The "old Boeing" almost always tries to blame the pilots: USAir Flight 427, September 8, 1994 when Boeing said the pilots stepped on the wrong pedal.

And sometimes an investigating agency tries to blame the pilots, especially when the aircraft is made in their country, like the French BEA when they blamed the pilots for American Eagle Flight 4184, October 31, 1994.
