Carruthers, I think you have the emphasis round the wrong way.

100% of safe flights are caused by the crew.

When the loadmaster screws up, the pilots have to find the error and sort it out.

When the fuel upload was incorrect, the pilots have to find the error and correct it.

When the aircraft goes tech. in the middle of the flight, the pilots have to sort it out.

When lightning takes out all Nav Aids, the pilots have to sort it out.

When the engineers have signed a fault off with "NFF" and it reoccurs, the pilots have to handle the situation.

When the caterers have screwed up and not supplied enough of this, that or the other, it is the pilots who call ahead to the handlers to provide more.

etc.

Your logic is about the same as saying that 30% of all road accidents are caused by drunk drivers. In that case, let's get the sober drivers who cause 70% of them off the roads and make them far safer.

You understand nothing about aviation, and are fast making yourself a laughing stock throughout the pilot community. Now run away and play with MSFltSim again - it seems to be all that you understand.
