A similarity with these events - human behaviour, could be 'failure to intervene' as in CRM.
This could be lack of awareness, or choosing a poor option.
The 'good' option is doing what is expected - regulators must not expect that this will always happen.
A poor - incorrect option involves judgement of risk; a balance in the perceived outcomes.
If the risk of FAA criticism and monetary penalty is lower than the loss which be suffered by a higher aircraft price, late delivery, etc, then gamble.
One intervention in these managerial scenarios is to have very stringent penalties - it will more expensive to get caught - shareholders wrath and company collapse, vs financial loss in fines. The balance of these is continually changing; more profit, fines may be less concerning. This is further complicated by national culture, economic basis, and an overly complex legal system.
Risk management in an uncertain world; heed expertise of the workforce:
'Deference to expertise'
