It is sad and a tragic shame that people have lost their lives, my thoughts are with the family and friends of those who have perished.
I do, however, agree with Crab, and others, that a safety margin imposed by oneself for when one runs out of talent is the saviour of many a "young gun".It is a shame that this particular pilot failed to apply the "10% for the wife and kids" maxim, another tried and tested safety system.
He made the decisions on that day and flew the aircraft in such a way as to lead to the demise of innocent people including crew members, who though complicit in what went on, were not in command.
A no blame culture is all well and good, but responsibility has to be taken by someone and the buck stops with the person holding the cyclic.
