Sadly, any 'expose' of regionals, Colgan, FAA, 'fatigue', or 'low-time', 'rest' etc. etc. will of course be sensational. The only solution lies in accountability. The lack thereof is breathtaking, in corporate and regulatory entities both. The only attention that should obtain to this sad situation is Headlines. So sad that to create accountability requires some form of published notoriety or punishment, in front of everyone. Just as we see the start of change (or not) from any direction, some other hole in the dike will appear, and people will die unnecessarily. The only thing that ever works in any democracy is criminal sanction and punishment. A 'wink' and a 'nod' should mean jail time, IMO.
