Many years ago when I was in flight engineers school they showed us a movie made for the USAAF during WW 2. The movie I believe was titled Joe Instructor and Saint Pete. This AAF instructor was invited to heaven by St. Peter to observe some of his former students that had bought their share of the farm. One was an innocent victim of someone else that had overstressed a P 39 Aircobra and not reported his actions.
During the innocents flight when he was performing normal flight maneuvers his wings folded and he was killed. This sort of thing goes on all the time and like in the movie innocent people get killed. Much later, the USAF initiated a policy that if you had done something wrong and it was unintentional and reported the problem then action to correct the problem would be taken and the offender was let off with a warning.
