Good to see the blame culture still alive and well in aviation

We can all pass criticism, indeed I have myself, but I don't think prosecution is the answer. Besides, if the aeroplane isn't broken, and no-one died or was injured, what can you prosecute him for? A heavy landing? Yes it was bad but jesus if we all went to court for a heavy landing from time to time imagine the state the British judicary system would be in then! erm... actually, nevermind

But I suppose there are heavy landings, and then HEAVY landings Or would this swissair clip be defined as more of a 'light crash'? I can see The Sun's headline now...

"Hero pilot saves 110 lives at london city airport"

Sorry cynical old me again....
