I think you're being a little hard on 'Forget'... It is true that certain cultures have varied approaches to authority.. The doctrine of the German / Japanese and some others to authority is markedly different to that of the Australians who have a healthy disrespect for it.. It has been recognised for many years ( I can remember reading a Psychological report on the Qantas flight crew working environment back in the '80s ) that the ready willingness to question an action by the skipper had more than once been effective in keeping an aircraft out of trouble.. seems obvious to everyone today but up until 20+ yrs ago the thought of question the skipper was almost sacrilage.
