Positioning flights...and problems

These positioning flights can (and will continue to be) more incident prone than revenue service.

Some crews are more relaxed (SOP-wise) and (can be) inattentive during positioning flights, and a very few will 'experiment'...as in, 'I wonder just what would happen if we did this...', which ain't a good idea at all.

Not necessarily connected with the aforementioned accident, however...I hope.
