Too true,
Unfortunately too many aviation companies have this attitude, mine is better than most but they still have a looooooooooooong way to go.
We have safety officers-may I say all crews also belong in this category, but the people back home simply have not had the experience or lack the will or initiative to really get to grips with the realities at the outstations.
It is all all too easy to get an overseas company to analyze flight data and then blame the aircrew for (an unsafe approach). Unfortunately it seems that this new technology is being embraced far too quickly by inexperienced management and used as a tool for their own pursuits.
These people will also try and negate aircrew concerns by labelling them as non company people or such nonsense but all it needs is a loss of crew with an associated hull loss and these same people ask-WHAT WENT WRONG? Well-to them I say go and check your outststations and LISTEN to the concerns of your crews, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!
ALWAYS FLY SAFELY!
