So they should and so they do. Whilst I have not bothered to check all the 'penalties' dished out, I am aware of one termination of employment, two downgrades and a serious bout of re-education and checking. This seems serious enough and all followed the normal investigative process. I am not claiming the moral high ground here, only saying that I consider any of us could and probably have made blunders in the past and will again in the future. Not matter how close to the top of the professional tree we are. Sometimes good training, sound experience, reliable procedures and super flying skills can all be undone. IMHO.
