timzsta - who decides who falls into which category? The pilot himself? What do you do with a fool who thinks he is a wise man and breaks the rules foolishly?
I don't condone any platitude which gives a slick justification for breaking rules.
Rules are there for a reason. If the rules do not cover a given situation, then yu are breaking no rules by using your professional judgement.
Anyone who deliberately goes against the rules will be held answerable for the consequences. He must have a good reason to do so.
