Study finds criminal prosecution following accidents damages flight safety


unfortunately that is how things in italy are done. whenever something happens, justice system takes over, seize everything, throw everybody in jail then in the best case forget about it, or after years of court auditions distributes heavy sentences. there is indeed a battle between ANSV, aeronautical authorities and justice system because investigation are delayed or totally impeded by the justice system intrusions. last year a microlight was invoklved in a fatal accident, local authorities seized the wreckage then forgot about it. i think it is still unavailable for any investigation.

if italian ATC is as bad as it is, is also because they constantly operate in CYA mode, expecially after OE-FAN
