As far as I'm aware this is the first time a pilot has been put in jail here (willing to be proven wrong, and not including pilots that assasinate pax)
If you read most of the accident reports here external factors such as weather are given the majority of the blame. "wind blew the plane off the runway" not "pilot lost control of the aircraft"
The 'battle scars' culture is alive and well (that scarred twin otter pilot I think is a B737 pilot now) and that's going to take years to rectify.
Also remember when it rains here it's like someone tipping Sydney Harbor on your head with massive CBs and then lots of sharp pointy mountains and short runways so the weather / terrain environment IS inherently more dangerous.
Small steps boys and girls ... they ARE trying !
